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.

I find it quite hard to find hills long enough in the UK to de sensible amounts of sweetspot, Spain has some lovely 20 min climbs you can do at that level.

I have one 60 mins away. 6% for 8 km.

So you can ride it at pretty much any intensity you wish.

Now that ive upped intensity. Im climbing a more local 10% 2km one. That one alternates between 3% and 12%. So the climb dictates intensity. I can just about sweetspot it.
