The key to faster time trialing is improving your ability to sustain higher levels of output (power) over a longer duration. By boosting your anaerobic threshold, you’ll become more efficient and be able to generate more watts for a longer period of time before fatigue sets in, allowing you to ride faster in the ‘race of truth’. In this workout, Spinervals 32.0 – EXTREME Threshold Training, Coach Troy guides you through an effective, challenging (and sometimes painful!) series of threshold sets designed to stress your anaerobic energy system and ‘raise the ceiling’ of your AT.

Incorporate this workout into your training schedule for faster bike splits!

Spinervals 27.0 – Threshold Test & Suffer Fest serves dual purposes. A great threshold building workout designed to boost your anaerobic threshold and sustainable power output for time trialing events including triathlons, this workout also functions as a repeatable ‘field test’ used by many prominent coaches and exercise physiologists to determine an athletes ‘Functional Threshold’, or that output of work (power) one can sustain on average over a 20 minute period.

By learning one’s functional threshold and retesting it every 6-8 weeks, an athlete can accurately determine the proper training zones as well as assess their training progress over time. This form of performance testing is critical for anyone interested in getting faster on the bike and achieving optimal results through a structured training program.

Join Coach Troy Jacobson and the athletes from the New Jersey cycling and multisport community in this useful and effective workout that will help you go faster in your next race!

Mindy guides you through a mix and match workout experience complete with amazing imagery specific to the road you’re on.

Upright vs. Indoor Cycling Bikes
An upright exercise bike is designed for the user to sit on the seat and use built-in programming. When the flywheel moves, the pedals don’t move without pedaling. An indoor cycling bike, by contrast, includes a heavy front flywheel that’s designed to simulate the feel of outdoor cycling on a mountain or road bike. When the flywheel moves, the pedals also move. And unlike regular exercise bikes, which come to a stop when you remove your foot from the pedal, an indoor bike will continue to move. The result is a natural cycling motion that feels just like riding a bike outdoors. This means if you tighten the resistance and come out of the saddle as you ride, you’ll feel as if you’re cycling up a steep hill. Indoor cycling offers a number of benefits: it provides a time-efficient calorie burn; it tones your muscles and decreases body fat; it increases cardio endurance; it improves your overall strength; and it relieves stress.
