He has you do a pretty tough warm up for about 20 minutes which get the HR up. Then you do 4 x 15 minute "time trial" efforts at gearing that is really not meant for trainer riding and certainly does not simulate time trialing. There are not many people (even very strong cyclists) who can maintain 90rpm cadence on a trainer with gearing of 53-12. Most of the workout is at 53-15, 53-14, 53-13. It's ridiculous and frankly a recipe for injury. No wonder most of the people in the video are caught cheating with their gearing and look to be pusing 50-60rpm cadence.
