This week's 45-minute workout focuses on shorter, higher intensity Anaerobic Capacity intervals. We incorporated these in a previous week. These challenging intervals will help to elevate both your power and your VO2 Max.
​
This workout could be done outside on a hill (the 3-minute interval could be done on a flat road in a big gear).
​
