The Cyclocross Workout Of The Day for Tuesday, 8.8.17. “VOToTheMax”

Howdy folks,

Happy Tuesday!

Before we get down to the business of the day, thanks to Greg for the kind donation! Much appreciate the help keeping the lights on here!

As you know if you’ve spent any time on here over the past several seasons, on Tuesday we typically put the pedal down to the mat, and hit some manner of intervals pretty hard.

We’re definitely sticking with that theme today, but we aren’t doing our typical 2×20 Tuesday routine.

Instead, we’re sticking with what we did last week. As is true for most interval sessions, it takes a couple/few goes at this type of workout before you really get something like this wired, and are able to do it to the max…

 

 

So, here we go. Second shot at this. Grab your destiny by the balls and…
