EVENT DESCRIPTION
ABOUT THIS WORKOUT
This workout is for Tri Zwifters but all are welcome to join.
Step up the power, take a shot, and make it stick.
We've got five rounds of breakaway efforts:
3:00 Z2
2:30 Z3
0:15 Z6
2:00 Z4
With descending rest - 4min, 3min, 2min, 1min - between rounds.
WORKOUT DESIGNER
Jordan Rapp is the 2011 ITU Long Distance World Champion and a 6x IRONMAN® champion. A mechanical engineer from Princeton University, where he was a lightweight rower, Jordan brings technical precision to all aspects of the sport. He now works as a Game Designer at Zwift.
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.
