Highly recommend power zone programs, way more efficient then guessing cadence/resistance during regular classes

been doing this for years now. Works so much better than yoloing every ride when looking for performance gains.

I'll try one tomorrow. Any recommendations

endurance if you want long zone 3 intervals (5+ minutes each)
power zone if you want medium length in zones 3,4 and some 5
power zone max short length in zones 5+

Olivia is my favorite instructor but Matt is the most experienced with PZ.

 

[BAUCE]

you should do one of the power zone collections though. Intro to power zones is a good one to get started

OK that's what I need to know. I'll queue it up. Feel free to drop in for morale boosting h5's boys

Discover your Power Zones program sound right? 5 weeks, 4 days a week.

I'll start tomorrow. Already see a 60 minute ride in there

Did a 30 minute Jess King ride this afternoon for a break. Ended up duelling some guy for 4th place in the 45-odd person session I was in.

I like sessions that have 40-50 people. Gives you a solid challenge and direct competition the whole time.

I did a 60 min ride with Jess King today. She was nipping hard

I like seeing more folks ride, any of you guys transition to outdoor riding once the peloton got you hooked on riding in general?

I came from outdoor riding. Got in a habit doing that, and since our winters are an eternity I committed to a bike to keep it up.

New 60min PR today - 823.

I just took the 60 min Climb Ride with Christine D'Ercole

Taken by FredCèrvélōDDS on the Peloton Bike. Give it all with live & on-demand studio classes with world class instructors, right from home.

823 feet of elevation?

It’s actually “easy” also you spend a lot of time at “easy” paces so you become better at pedaling which leads to better outputs

I would imagine that Peloton keeps those rides pretty entertaining. My zwift rides are pretty darn boring. Nothing to really take your mind off the next interval, the interval your in or the burn you're feeling.

 

[thekinggovernor]

Of course they did lmao

 

[GH0ST]

I would have too. It was a bubble from COVID.

 

[Samcanadian]

I feel like I’m making actual progress vs the chaos that are the regular classes… like I feel like I could go bike 100 miles

I'm through three weeks of the "Discover your Power Zone" class and it's pretty easy. I tried a 30 minute Olivia pop ride on my day off today and put in a similar average to what I was before the PZ training, and... It MIGHT be my imagination.... But I think it was easier. I'm really looking forward to these next two weeks and some longer/harder PZ rides.

The next level power zone program is even better… you’ll feel like you can do a triathlon

I hope they do not go bankrupt

OK great. I noticed there's another program "Building your power zones" which is appealing

Yeah that’s the one, it’s a lot of 60min rides in zones 3, then more intense rides in 4-7

The “factory” got dropped, layoffs coming and a sale is obviously imminent

As long as Kendall doesn’t go anywhere we good
