The Cyclocross Workout Of The Day for Tuesday, 12.27.16. “Thinking speed all week”
Howdy folks,
There’s a ton of new stuff up on the for sale page, including a garage’s worth from ZMD. Some great (late!) Christmas gifts to yourself there! Check it out.
Minimum BS today. We’re at crunch time, Nationals is almost here.
We’re thinking speed…
…for the duration.
Today, we’re doing a specific, focused drill that some of my clients are also doing as we roll into Nats. Why are we doing this one?
Ask yourself that question after you try it!
It’s…
Mount-Up Sprints…
Start dismounted from bike.
Run up to speed, mount bike, clip in, then immediately out of the saddle.
Full-gas sprint for ten seconds.
Recover riding easy for one minute, then…
dismount, run up to speed, mount, full gas sprint for ten seconds.
Etc.
6 reps per set, 2-5 minutes between sets.
5 sets.
Enjoy!
