Beehive
Beehive is 2 hours of aerobic Endurance riding spent somewhere between 65-75% FTP.
Aerobic Endurance training is primarily about cultivating a strong, wide aerobic base that includes all of the physiological adaptations inherent in long, steady, low-intensity riding, e.g. improved fat metabolism, energy delivery & glycogen conservation, lower HR/higher aerobic power, improved neuromuscular efficiency, etc.
As time-constrained as most riding schedules are though, shorter Endurance rides done consistently can make up for some of the lacking pro-rider time availability.
Try to hold your spin within an 85-95rpm range & spend ample time adapting to & modifying your position on the bike while the workload is more manageable.
