In this training tip, Coach Frank (aka the BigCat) breaks down the right way and wrong way to perform power-based interval workouts. Whether you’re training for a crit, fondo, gravel race, group rides, or just chasing PRs, getting your Zone 4, 5, and 6 efforts right is the key to unlocking performance gains.

🚴‍♂️ Learn how to: ✅ Pace your VO2 Max, Threshold, and Sweet Spot intervals correctly ✅ Use tools like 3-second power and lap average to guide your effort ✅ Avoid common mistakes like going out too hard, relying on ERG mode, or over-riding Sweet Spot ✅ Take control with the lap button and train with intent—not automation
