We're Burning Too Many Unnecessary Matches! Don't Drop Yourself!

Conserve, conserve, conserve It’s not always a matter of increasing your watts, but increase your execution! Ask yourself “why am I pedaling right now?” Macro and micro! Micro is in the race, macro is the workouts on a day to day level. While I preach #NoCoast on endurance rides, you want to be coasting a TON in a bike race. Save the watts for when it really matters. Imagine a 5 x 5m interval set; the fifth one is brutal. Think about this in terms of race day. Try to make the first interval happen much later in the race; stay as fresh as possible. Don’t close a gap and then find yourself grabbing the brakes; that means you closed it with too many watts! Save the watts! Imagine how strong you’ll be after NOT doing a ton of work. https://youtu.be/7otsYzGfm-0
