Exposure to anaerobic efforts (where oxygen is not predominantly used) helps develop the anaerobic system and builds tolerance and resilience to strenuous efforts. This workout is designed to increase your anaerobic load and avoid boredom in what is otherwise a predominantly aerobic workout. It is an excellent workout for all triathletes, cyclists, and mountain bikers, as it is not too taxing on the anaerobic system.
