Virtual Bike Training Group, Threshold Thursdays
Quote | Reply
Just in time to fight the off season/holiday doldrums, Dig It Triathlon and Multisport is offering a free, virtual bike training group called Threshold Thursdays.

Training sessions start next Thursday, 12/15 and continue through January. The particulars of the workouts will be posted to the group page (Facebook) on Wednesdays and then you do the session as you'd like on Thursday, or any day really. Sessions last about an hour.

The group is a closed group in FB but all who are interested can join, just ask. I do note on the page that you're acknowledging your own risk in doing so.

Dig It Triathlon and Multisport and Quarq have graciously provided some small prizes for those who participate as well.

Questions, drop me a PM here, an email or join the group and ask on the wall.

Can you give an example of a workout? I'm interested.

Good question, I don't have the workouts with my at present but the sessions build from about 25 minutes of threshold work to about 40 minutes over the its course. There are warm up and cool down segments as well. A 30 minute example could be 3 x 10 minutes at threshold with 2.5 minutes easy between kind of thing.

I have been training and coaching with power for a long time and my goal with these is to be challenging but not so much as to be crushingly hard.

These can still be done without power, right?

Yep, I have a shared document in the group explaining how to test for whatever method you want to use for yourself to define threshold.

Workouts will be written so that folks can use power or heart rate as their means of monitoring threshold

do you have a link to your FB page or this group? I looked at your website and it doesn't link to facebook or anything obvious.
