After a series of lactate threshold work, I didn't really feel I was improving in terms of speed etc. Using Karvonen Heart rate reserve method instead of %Max Heart Rate method, my 85% threshold is now 178 instead of 168. This should see me working much harder.
If you're interested in working out your training zones, let me know.
Yesterday did 3 x 10min steady state threshold repeats @ 178bpm with 5mins rest between (only had an hour or so to workout). Real tough workout and I think I overgeared a bit, should focus on spinning higher cadence with slightly less load. So may have counted as a climbing workout. Totals: Avg HR 155 @ 78%max/70% Vo2max, 927calories @40% fat =40g fat burnt.
