Sunday Smart-Trainer Session – Seated, Standing Threshold

Riding at or around your Threshold will bring up both your ability to sustain high-intensity effort (as well as your suffering). Combine that with riding both in and out of the saddle will use different muscles and alter the training stimulus received. This session is great for triathletes, road cyclists, and can also be beneficial for mountain bikers, especially for events that are about an hour in duration such as a 40km Time Trial or the bike leg of an Olympic Distance Triathlon.

This is the second article in the series, using Joe Friel’s The Power Meter Handbook as the primary reference.
