130% FTP Is NOT Hard Enough! Anaerobic FRC Training Tips #683

EVOQ.BIKE Cycling Podcast - A podcast by EVOQ.BIKE - Mondays

I am also shocked that I'm going to talk about how necessary I've realized it is for me to split the classic "Zone 6: Anaerobic" into at least two buckets like WKO does, which basically shakes out to 120-150% FTP, and 150-235ish% (not as concerned with the upper limit and more on that in the video).I realized all of this after getting some early season shalacking and needed to get tee'd up for the VERY hard Capital Region Road Race (New York State Pro/1 State Championship).When using 6 zones for training, it's like "wow, 19m of anaerobic time"...but when using iLevels (9 zones), I had a workout that had NO time over 140% FTP, which i find very important to note for racing purposes...there's a LOT of smashing above that in races, and while I hit some "anaerobic training" at 19 whole minutes, it still lacked those 30-90 banger efforts. I fooled myself!00:00 Welcome 02:09 Race example: Capital Region02:54 How much 150%+ training do I need?03:58 Is a “KOM Day” hard enough?04:17 See the difference in zones06:44 What we need before “A Races”anaerobic blog mentioned: https://www.evoq.bike/blog/anaerobic-capacity-cycling 👋🏽 If you're new to the channel, welcome!
