Group Workout
DESCRIPCIÓN DEL EVENTO
ABOUT THIS WORKOUT
This week we are going to put all of our hard work to the test. We will work all zones as well as extend the duration working for a total of 2 x 17-minute mock event efforts with a nice steady Zone 3 effort between. This ride will be a test of your physical strength as well as your mental strength while keeping it REAL and of course FUN…

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.
