This is a great mixed workout where you can work on both your speed skills and your muscular endurance. Muscular endurance is your body’s ability to resist muscular fatigue under pedaling tension. That pedaling tension is where the magic happens in your pedal stroke. The more tension in the pedals, the more power gets to the rear wheel and the faster you go.
SESSION FOCUS: Mixed Efforts of speed skills and muscular endurance.
