• Sweetspot training means doing 2+ hours at sweetspot, nothing else. No intervals, no recovery (Or rather, 2-4 hour intervals, >12 hrs recovery between)

  • What does that even mean?

  • Well that chart shows what I mean by 20+ for sweetspot. I seem to remember it being a way of substituting threshold intervals With ones you can far better recover from. While having nearly as good effect. Which is probably where I got the 20min figure from.

    I do poor sweetspot training because I tend to do hill repeats thus.

    1 x SMASH IT INTO THE GROUND STRAVA IS WATCHING!
    lots x sweetspot = Should be higher. But I'm empty.
    1 x tempo = I'm climbing at tempo, I'm offically finished, I'm going home.

    Its not ideal. But its fun. And its not like anybodys paying me to be disaplined.
