Welcome to the RAD RACE Group Workout Series, 12 weeks of workouts designed by RAD RACE Cycling! With VO2 max intervals and team training sessions, the RAD RACE team aims to put you through your paces and bring your fitness game to new levels.

Designed to keep you in top form over the winter season, this series will increase your maximum speed as we come into spring. Workouts kick off December 4 and continue every following Wednesday for 12 weeks at 7 p.m. CET (with the exception of Christmas Day).

In true RAD fashion, these workouts are about expanding our pack of the raddest riders in the world. Join in. Experience the fun.

WORKOUT

2 x 15 minutes ON in Sweet Spot with a 'burst' every 3 minutes; 7.5 minutes recovery
Perform the effort at Sweet Spot Wattages, then 'burst' out of the saddle for 10 secs at 200% of your FTP then return to sweet spot wattages.
Bursts are meant to help emulate the stochastic nature of bike rides, where you have to give it some 'gas'/hard efforts to get up a steep section, out of a corner or close a gap.


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.
