The Big Cat's 3 Go-To Interval Workouts

Coach Frank "BigCat" Overton drops some knowledge and watt bombs about his top 3 go-to interval workouts this week on the pod. Threshold, VO2 and Anaerobic Capacity/Zone 6 intervals. It's that time of year to start thinking about switching from base to race with early season races looming on the horizon, so intervals are the prescription. In this podcast, Frank shares some wisdom on his top 3 interval workouts that are versatile to a variety of races and cycling disciplines, so that you can feel more confident in your training this year:

Zone 4: 3 x 8 minutes ON 4-8 minutes off.
Zone 5: 2 sets of 2 x 3 min On 3 min OFF
Zone 6: 2 sets of 3 x 1 min On 1 min Off , 115 % of your FTP and higher like 150%
