BIKE 2:15
WARM UP
20:00 gearing pyramid
-- begin with 6:00 @60% in your easiest gear, then adjust to one gear harder for 5:00, then 4:00, 3:00, and finish with 2:00 @75%
MAIN SET
This main set should help demonstrate how much more smoothly you can pedal with some focus on spinning smooth circles. The target time trial distance is 11.2 miles (18.1km), which is exactly 1/10 of the Ironman ultra distance bike ride.
2 x 3:00 ILT w/30 sec recovery after each
Each one should be done as 6 x (20 sec one leg/10 sec transition), continuous
1 x 11.2 miles (18.1 km) time trial @75% -- record your time
2 x 3:00 ILT w/30 sec recovery after each -- right into
1 x 11.2 miles (18.1 km) time trial @75% -- compare to the first time trial -- should be slightly faster at the same HR intensity
2 x 3:00 ILT w/30 sec recovery after each -- your abs (stomach muscles) will probably be throbbing a bit here, but relax your mid-section and concentrate on smooth pedaling throughout the cycle
COOL DOWN
20:00 reverse gearing pyramid: 6:00 in "hard" gear @75%, followed by 5:00 in next easier gear, then 4:00, 3:00, and then 2:00 @60% intensity by the end.
Lørdag, 5. træningsuge
SWIM 0:45
WARM UP
600 easy swim, holding proper form and letting your HR rise to 70% by the end.
MAIN SET
Locomotive Swim: 3 x 500 Loco w/30 sec rest after each, building from
1 length easy/1 length fast up to 4 lengths easy/4 lengths fast
-- easy efforts should be done @60% intensity;
fast efforts are at roughly 75% intensity
(ALTERNATE SET: 2 x 500 w/30 sec rest)
COOL DOWN
4 x 75 @60% w/10 sec rest after each
RUN 1:10
Begin with a 20:00 jog, getting into it very gradually,
bringing the intensity up to 65% by the end.
Big Target: 3-Mile MAF Test
Here's the drill: Either perform this at a local track (preferably one you can run to), or use a familiar portion of a local course that you know to be roughly three miles in length. Begin by gradually increasing your HR up to 75% intensity -- beginning this directly after the warm up would work best -- and then, when you are at a known starting point, start your watch!
Be sure to hold your HR right at 75% throughout the test run -- no more! -- and stop your watch after reaching the three-mile point. Record your time for future comparison.
Be sure to cool down completely, immediately after your run. Your HR should be at or under 60% before you come to a close.
