Love your videos. Title your next Video, "How Tadej Pogacar is training with heat / duration and. how he'll be beaten in 2025". ---Your channel will BLOW UP!! Chapeau.
What im taking from this is this particular person has pretty damn good genetics, or he let his fitness drop and regained what he lost, i dont really see other people/seasoned cyclists getting these same results a 21% gain in FTP thats more than significant and same with his VO2 max that is a astronomical jump
A successful taper isn’t just about ‘gaining’ fitness; it’s about revealing potential that might already be there by reducing fatigue. This athlete’s jump in CP and VO2 max after the taper reflects that process and highlights their response to training. However, it’s important to note that tapering doesn’t work the same way for everyone, and gains like this can vary due to factors like genetics, training history, and baseline fitness. The key to a good taper is carefully managing it to maximise performance without risking a fitness drop
1 hour with 3x1 minute at 95-105% with ~2 minutes easy (50-60%) between efforts.Then, steady 15 minutes at 55-60%, followed by 2x1 minute at 95-105% + 30 seconds at 110-125%. Rest 2 minutes easy between each final effort.

@@semiprocycling Im just curious had this person ever reached these numbers or higher numbers previously ?
No. This was a true peak performance.
Impressive! Was his post results from the race or did you test him after?
@@dustinmaherfitness Didn’t test; the numbers reflect his performance at the race and just after.
Should those 30 seconds be above or under your VO2 max?
@robbemoors4227 I've always prescribed them at 120-130% of threshold.
I think the answer would be: the intensity would be as much as you can tolerate but it should also be consistent throughout the entire workout.
What does PRE-RACE workout consist of?
1 hour with 3x1 minute at 95-105% with ~2 minutes easy (50-60%) between efforts.Then, steady 15 minutes at 55-60%, followed by 2x1 minute at 95-105% + 30 seconds at 110-125%. Rest 2 minutes easy between each final effort.
@@semiprocycling Thank you!
