Threshold + above threshold54 minHard

Threshold with kick: 4 x 7-8 min (98–111% FTP)

4 x 7-8 min at 98% FTP where intervals 2 and 4 include a 2-min kick at 111% in the middle. Trains the ability to surge mid-effort on tired legs.

Opplevd Anstrengelse
8/10Svært hardt

The mid-interval kick forces the body to mobilize extra power when lactate is already elevated from threshold work. You train the anaerobic system near VO2max in a state where the body is already under pressure. This is what decides races — the ability to surge when everyone is tired. After the kick, you must settle back to threshold, which trains recovery under load.

Øktstruktur

Oppvarming
10 min progressive warmup with activation up to 95% FTP.
Hoveddel

Våre tips for denne økten

  • 1.The kick on intervals 2 and 4 comes in the middle. Pace the first half knowing the surge is coming.
  • 2.Visualize the kick as an attack in a race. Mental focus makes it easier to deliver when the body is tired.
  • 3.After the kick, settle back to threshold watts. The ability to recover while still riding hard is the real training effect.

Hva du oppnår

The mid-interval kick forces the body to mobilize extra power when lactate is already elevated from threshold work. You train the anaerobic system near VO2max in a state where the body is already under pressure. This is what decides races — the ability to surge when everyone is tired. After the kick, you must settle back to threshold, which trains recovery under load.

Ernæring

Eat normally 2-3 hours before. Drink with carbohydrates during. After: protein + carbohydrates within 30 min.

Slik kombinerer du økten

Use this as the one hard session of the week. Zone 2 the day before and after. Works well in race preparation when you need finishing speed.

Teoretisk grunnlag

The 111% FTP kick in the middle of intervals trains anaerobic capacity near VO2max after lactate is already elevated from threshold work. This simulates race situations where surges come mid-effort, not at the end. Returning to threshold after the kick trains lactate clearance under continued load.
