Bike/Run Training
My last post detailed a 9-day training methodology. Today was the end of the first week (of 9 days). So how did it feel? Fatigued. I think my taking an easy day as swimming has added to my fatigue. Today I did my normal bigger session as a bike/run and struggled on the roller session to hit expected power. However, on the run, whilst fearing another struggle, I actually ran ok - for an old guy! I try to be reasonably fresh for this weekend session to get the most benefit but I suppose there is also benefit in completing the session whilst fatigued - as long as rest follows.
The session was a descending pyramid on the rollers as:
Warm up
2 x
8 min 190W
2 min spin
6 min 200W
2 min spin
4 min 210W
2 min spin
2 min 220W
The run off the bike was the same format, aiming to increase the pace whilst descending effort time. I will complete this session again as a test set and see how the numbers compare.
