2×8 field test results

I looked forward to this all week. Rode the first one at 377 and that includes going out almost 2 minutes too long ending at 9:53. I was so locked into the average watts that by the time I thought about checking the time I was way over. Held 381 for 8 minutes on the

5×5 steady states, comments

Was planning on an easy day but found five 5 minute steady states on the schedule. I used flat Riverside Drive for these. The goal was upper end of the zone of 319-334. Actual power ended up being 336, 337, 333, 330 and 335 with HR hitting 150-155 or 82-85% OF max. Time between was

Over/Unders

I rode these at Ault Park. Actually added an extra to the second set. Must have been caught up in the effort and lost count. Better than doing too few. Here is the power going 4 minute then 2 minutes: 321/371/316/379…324/366/320/375/314/373…311/359/312/378. Certainly better than last week. The day off yesterday helped. Hope to get 100

So Far This Week

Monday was an off day with some light recovery miles. Also did a little upper body with pushups (100 total), curls, press, extensions, etc. Yesterday was the Cleves Time Trial. Rode a 22:38 or a little over 27 mph. Kind of stuck in that range of time for the last couple months. Hard to get

Day 2 of Over/Unders

Had big swing on todays efforts. Once again it was 90 degrees and super humid. The first set was 325/375/323/390. Felt good about those. Next set was 319/353/305/346. So-so on those. Last set was 303/324/278/326. Had nothing on those. HR was 160+ so I stuck with it. Was down 3lbs when I got home and

comment from clinic attendee

Thanks, Peter! I should mention that YOUR comments at one of your time trial clinics last year are what started me down the path of taking strength and body composition more seriously! I contacted Dawn W. and was horrified to find I really was at 24-25% body fat despite all the training. Also was struggling
