How Do I Know How Hard to Ride?

Workout Purpose

Your plan includes bike workouts designed to improve your functional threshold power, aerobic, anaerobic and muscular endurance, as well as speed skills.

To do this we use 5 Training Zones to structure the workouts. In the first week of your plan, you will see a key bike fitness test to determine your thresholds and training zones.

Following Your Workouts

You can export your bike workouts to your compatible App or Device and follow power-based intensity zones as you ride. Or follow the description and train using Heart Rate or Rate of Perceived exertion as a measure of intensity.

You will need to enter your threshold and training zones in your TrainingPeaks settings.

Check here for more on syncing popular devices and platforms such as Zwift, Rouvy and TrainerRoad.

Device Settings

When you follow workouts using heart rate your threshold and training zones on your training device need to match those in your TrainingPeaks settings. This will allow you to check you remain in the correct HR Zone as you ride.

For Garmin check this article for more on this. For other devices go to your manual for how to do this.
