Group Workout
EVENT DESCRIPTION
ABOUT THE MARCH ZWIFT FONDO TRAINING PLAN
Planning on joining the next Zwift Fondo on March 18th? We've created a training plan to prepare you for the big day. We will have three workouts a week - two interval workouts tailored towards everyone of about 50min each during the week in multiple time slots and a long ride tailored to each distance of the Fondo - Gran, Medio, and Bambino - on the weekend.
ABOUT THIS WORKOUT
Week 2 - Workout 2: This is the second workout of week 2 in our group workout training plan for December's zFondo. This interval workout is designed for riders of all Fondo distances - Gran, Medio, and Bambino - with a focus on making - or catching - a breakaway.
4min warm-up
4x(3min 75%, 3min 85%, 30sec 125%, 90sec threshold 100%) with descending 4-3-2min rest @ 50% between rounds.
5min cool-down
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.
