More recommended for longer rides fasted, in some vague attempt to prevent muscle brakedown.
For 1h won't matter. -
Sweetspot workouts should be hard but not so hard you can't do them for long. The point is to get a lot of work done in a shorter amount of time - bang for buck.
You're probably doing them poorly if you're doing them fasted.If I was only doing 45min of work then I would probably be doing it harder than sweetspot or it would just be a rest day commute thing and I'd save it for a proper 2-4hr sesssion.

A friend of mine was telling me I should be taking some protein in during fasted workouts.
Usual workout is something like an hour long, with 10 mins warm up and warm down, and 45 mins of sweetspot intervals. I do 2 of these a week, with only a black coffee before hand.
Protein during/after - yay or nay?
edit: I do other workouts too, but just curious about fasted sweetspot intervals particularly.
