What is the optimal way to progress sweet spot duration? Assume the cyclist has completed a couple seasons of structured training and is just coming off their current season and a couple week rest period. In other words, stating the base phase for the upcoming season. 3x12 > 4x10 > 3x15 > ? > ? > ? …

its a 12 You can see it on on the workouts tab in the browser and just filter to your custom workouts.

Thanks very much for that. I don’t know if I’m doing it wrong, but the only custom workouts I can see are the ones in the “Team” I joined “More Sweet Spot”

Yep. That’s the one. Strong you aren’t seeing the levels

There should be pretty much every combo you need on the team workout list and I’m happy to make any others that people need that aren’t there - you…

It does look like the workouts on the team llist are pretty well scaled - I did a 4x15 today and when comparing to the numbers on alternate sessions it looked spot on.

Hi all, Enjoying the wisdom of this thread and the progress I’ve been making. Took my KM FTP test at 245 @ 35 mins TTE in March Sweet spot out to 1x90@90% KM FTP test 253 @ 60 mins TTE in April Took my threshold progressions to 6x15 @ 97% I’ve now rested and keen to start a VO2 block I’ve lis…

I have a custom workout that is rated as vo2max 11.5

It is just 2 * 30 second sprints followed by 1 * 2 minutes at 130% then 1 * 2 minutes at 115%

Did the plans change?
