Improve Your FTP: Part Three of Three

 

Welcome to the final part of our three part series to help you improve your FTP and build a training week. In case you missed the first two sessions, Matt discussed why we use FTP as a metric for improvement & why training indoors gets better results than outdoor rides (even though the end result is riding out in nature). You can find the first session HERE. In session two Matt went through how to structure the week and the importance of rest. You can find that HERE.

 

In this video we will look into:

 

 – The Golden Nugget of how to stick to your plan.

 – Finalising your week’s training plan.

 – How very short, super max sprints can give you the quickest results.

 – Session three: Standing Starts.

Enjoy the session, it should be hard the first time you do it but persevere and it will get easier. We look forward to hearing how you got on and we will see you on the next video.
