Hippodrome


This is a good winter trainer workout for gradually transitioning from pure FTP build into a little more intense L5 work. It'll give you 55 quality minutes and 66 TSS.



  • WU: 15 min @ 65% FTP (L2)
  • Then do this set 3 times:

  • 5 min @ 88% FTP (SST)
  • 3 min @ 112% FTP (L5)
  • 2 min @ L2

  • Then:

  • 5 min solid tempo
  • 5 min cooldown spin

Google is very helpful in making up workout names: In 532 AD, the Nika Riot occurred in Constantinople, and about 30,000 people were killed in the Hippodrome (horse track). Also, 532 AD was the first year that the Anno Domini calendar was ever used.
