Takeaways
- Having a power meter that measures both left and right power can help identify and address power imbalances in pedal stroke.
- For most athletes, a power imbalance of 48/52 or 52/48 is not a cause for concern.
- When setting goals for races, consider factors such as race distance, terrain, and competition level.
- Pacing strategies should be tailored to the specific race and individual capabilities.
- VO2 max intervals can be customized based on the type of rider and their specific energy system needs.
- Tabata-style workouts can be effective for improving VO2 max, but should be used strategically and not as the sole focus of training.
- Training plans should include a combination of race-specific intervals and general intensity workouts for optimal results.
- Consider individual factors such as fitness level, training history, and race goals when designing training plans.
- Experimentation and learning from mistakes are important for building race experience and improving performance.
Titles
