Is it OK to take short breaks when in Recovery Zones

Training

50 is my large chainring.

I take short break (30-45 seconds) during the longer Recovery periods … and not during 30 seconds short Recovery period.

If you can’t do 20m of uninterrupted work at your ftp then your ftp is too high. 30m would be the lower end of what most would consider ftp.

Thanks. I’ll let TR decide based on what Caro said.

In that case, you might want to try your small chainring, combined with one of the larger cogs, and see if that helps with the issues at lower wattage.

Thanks! That was an advice I received from a TR coach. I follow it at times when doing very challenging WOs.
