WORKOUT DESIGNER
AJ Baucco is a professional triathlete & coach.
"After spending the better part of last decade as a student of the sport of triathlon, it has become very apparent that I thoroughly enjoy sharing my wealth of knowledge with others. I have been incredibly lucky to learn from some of the best athletes and coaches in the sport. My knowledge, coupled with an innate desire to teach others, makes coaching the perfect fit for me. Coaching mixes two of my strongest passions, education and triathlon. Even before I was introduced to triathlon, I possessed the urge to guide others through education. I received my degree in Mathematics and my teaching license from the state of Ohio. Upon graduating, I decided to put my career as an educator on hold and pursue my career as a professional in the sport of triathlon. I spent the first 2 years of my professional career focusing on myself and my own progression, but it became clear that I wasn't happy without teaching in my life. Because going back to work in the classroom while carrying on as a professional athlete didn't seem reasonable, I decided to pursue education in a different way. Coaching triathlon along with doing camps, and small or 1-on-1 clinics allows me to satisfy my urge to teach while still focusing full time on my own sporting career." - AJ
ABOUT GROUP WORKOUTS
Zwifters line up in the starting area just like a normal event and once the event starts, workout mode begins. Everyone stays together regardless of power output. That's right, if you're outputting 100W and another Zwifter is outputting 400W you will stay in exactly the same position relative to each other. Only if you stop pedaling and fall 6 meters behind the group will the rubber-banding stop.
HELPFUL HINT
We highly recommend doing one of the FTP tests as the estimated FTP can be inaccurate and make the difficulty level of the workouts too high for your current fitness level.
