About this workout

This brutal anaerobic workout focuses on short, powerful bursts with 30 seconds at 130% FTP, perfect for building the kick needed to close gaps during races or group rides. It's a great addition to your training routine for developing raw sprinting power and lactate tolerance without the fatigue of longer intervals.
