Cycling Efficiency HIIT Trio for Karoo
Three complementary power-based cycling HIIT workouts designed to improve pedaling efficiency, aerobic power, repeatability above threshold, and fatigue resistance. All intervals are expressed as percentages of FTP so they adapt automatically to the athlete. Suitable for execution on a Hammerhead Karoo via Tredict structured workouts.
Training phases:
Build
Intensive
Build In the build-up phase, volumes are increased and specialised units are added. The build-up phase takes the momentum of the foundation phase, builds on it and leads purposefully to the intensive phase or the seasonal plateau.
Intensive In the intensive phase of a training season, the main aim is to add endurance, speed and efficiency to what is already there. The volumes remain high. High-intensity sessions and other specific workouts are regularly added.
Zone type:
Power
Power The intensities and efforts of the plan are calculated according to wattage, among other things. A power measurement device is required during training.
Performance level: Advanced
Advanced Athletes with some experience and a good level of endurance can progress with these plans.
Applicability: Only the buyer
Only the buyer The plan may only be applied to the calendar of the training plan buyer. However, this can be done an unlimited number of times.

This training plan works on the basis of measured wattage. Running activities require a power meter, such as a Stryd Footpod. Cycling activities benefit from power meter pedals, such as the Garmin Vector. Sensors from other manufacturers also work well. Tredict supports most modern sensors and training devices.

Capacity values briefly explained
HRmax: The maximum heart rate your heart can deliver under very heavy load.

FTPa: Functional Threshold Pace - The maximum speed you can maintain for about an hour.

FTP: Functional Threshold Power - The maximum wattage you can maintain for about an hour.

The relative intensity values of a training session are converted into your personal absolute intensity values when using the plan, based on the capacity values. 70% HRmax thus become 140bpm, if your maximum heart rate in the capacity values is set to 200bpm.
Tredict's intensity calculation is based on the training duration, so the distance of the training plan changes according to your personal FTPa.
