Using Training Peaks we can go in and look at the metrics - power, heart rate and cadence - to check if you did a good job on your workout

Three metrics define how to do a workout: power, heart rate and cadence. Take a closer look at your workouts in Training Peaks.

A good Zwifting experience is about more than just a computer and smart trainer.

When doing hard work there is a direct correlation between sugar in and watts out.

Editing the structured workout is easy.

Use your testing results, and some insights into what sort of rider you are, to figure out where to take your training.

You can always add time at your endurance pace. Cycling is a sport that rewards time spent training, just be sure it doesn't fatigue you.

Each ride has unique physical characteristics. Let’s look at how different types of rides might approach the same workout.

Fuelling is a good term to use because that is really what you are doing - putting gas into your tank to maximize your riding.

Your breathing technique is one of those things you can improve to ride better without having to change your fitness.

Make sure you are breathing in three dimensions to maximize your respiration.

Why are different rides with the same average power leaving your legs feeling so different? Pacing. Keep an eye on your variability index.

Being able to ride well at both high and low cadence will make the middle, where you spend most of your time, feel like butter.

Pushing the watts when a ride is hard is great. First though you have to get to that point in the ride and have the energy left to push

We all like to feel like we are training - but but that leads to fatigue and stagnation.

We tend to think that riding well means more watts. The reality is that cycling is a dynamic and about more than just watts.

You might not think so but if you are riding at threshold it is like racing.

Some times you need to create a lap manually so you can look at a specific part of your ride data.

It isn't a circle. Improving your pedalling technique can make you a better rider without changing your fitness.

Zwift is an amazing resource when we are stuck riding indoors. The experience can be overwhelming. Here is a list of resources to help.
