I only do the endurance SQTs, but ride the sessions which are split with the sprint SQTs. From watching them it seems the coaches for the sprinters don't have set plans for the riders, they just assist them (with timing; standing starts etc.), so it's the riders that decide what efforts they want to do - some do efforts on their own (flying 200s, kilo etc...) and some have training partners that they work with (doing team sprints, match sprint tactical drills etc...). Basically, I'd say that if you want to do sprint SQTs, go knowing what you want to do and achieve. I'd also note that you only get 3 sprint efforts plus a warmup, so be sure that that is what you need and worthwhile for your plans!

Just passed level 4 myself so quite keen to get my bike off of the street and fit for the track.
Seems to be a lot more Sprint SQT Sessions at weekends vs the generic Intermediate SQT so could be a bit of a deep end dive straight into Sprint sessions on the cards and i expect this could be a little expensive with new wheels and gearing.
Have you been to any yet @danstuff ? Able to provide any tips of your own yet?
