Training Advice

if its 3-4 minutes long it isnt a sprint work out and wont help your sprint, rpm it wasnt the length of your sprint that let you down Sunday it was your observation to see what the other riders were about to do, then the reaction time was too long. If you had seen the move and reacted instantly you would have got on the wheel and been able to pop around when they started to tire as no one can go at there top speed for 500m.

Lee. How long would you say a flat out sprint training should be then?

When the clocks go forward I intend to do laps of regents Park in the evening. Plan to to at a nice steady pace and then do bursts of absolutely flat out every lap. How long should these bursts last for do you reckon? What sort of intervals should I be looking at between each one? Bearing in mind that it is the endurace races that I am primarily interested in, but I want to have a good sprint on me for the end
