Completed an interval session on the turbo-trainer last night to blow away the cobwebs. Utilised Sufferfest's 'Angels' workout as this has three 8 minute maximum efforts incorporating many short intervals.
Felt good throughout so decided to really push it to the limit on the last effort. Looking at the Garmin stats afterwards, it showed that I was beyond my maximum heartrate threshold of 183bpm for the whole thing, and peaked at 195bpm in the final sprint.
Very pleased to sustain this level of effort for the 8 minutes, as this replicates the kind of effort needed to get over the particularly steep ramps that occasionally appear during alpine climbs.
Stats For April:
Time on bike: 12 hrs 42 mins (9 hrs 7 mins on the road)
Distance cycled: 323km (200km on the road)
Total climbing: 3,265m
