VO2max Intervals Are NOT Good Race Prep??

EVOQ.BIKE Cycling Podcast

Full episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZKozOib5S0In this episode, we dive into the specifics of interval training and its role in race prep. From zone 2 base work to high-intensity VO2 max intervals, I share how different sessions fit into my overall training plan. I talk about my experiences with various VO2 sets—like 6x2s and more complex intervals from my longtime coach, Andy Applegate. You'll hear my thoughts on balancing structured training with race simulation efforts and why real-world experience is just as valuable as hitting perfect numbers in a workout. Whether you're a data-driven athlete or prefer a more intuitive approach, this video has insights for every racer.👋🏽 If you're new to the channel, welcome!
