We're bringing back a 45-minute workout from a few weeks ago, but changing up the order of the intervals.  There are four 5-minute intervals that combine both VO2 Max and Threshold efforts.  Each begins at a high intensity before dropping slightly for the remainder of the interval.  These types of efforts help to train your ability to recover at a higher intensity, just like if you were to attack a hill in a race, or catch up to a break away on a competitive group ride.

​

If you have extra time for this workout, spend it at the end of the ride to add on to your cool down.
