Sprint Turbo Trainer 30 Minute Workout
Here’s a great little turbo workout that will help you build some fantastic speed but doesn’t take too much of a commitment in terms of time spent on the bike.
First of all warm up thoroughly – steadily go up through your gears for 15 or 20 minutes or so
Now commence a 5 minute sprinting block-
15 seconds sprint
45 seconds recovery
15 seconds sprint
45 seconds recovery
15 seconds sprint
45 seconds recovery
15 seconds sprint
45 seconds recovery
15 seconds sprint
45 seconds recovery
At this point should should be feeling like you are in the middle of a good workout!
Now do 5 minutes steady recovery pace
Repeat the 5 minute sprinting block above
Repeat the 5 minute steady recovery
Repeat the 5 minute sprinting block above
Repeat the 5 minute steady recovery
That’s the hard work done, now just take as long as you need to adequately warm down and spin the worst of the lactic acid out of your legs.
Congratulations on doing one of the most value for money turbo workouts out there.
You can probably expect to be able to safely do this twice a week but be careful if you are doing much riding inbetween that you are giving yourself enough time to recover. Checking your resting heartrate daily with a hrm is a good idea to help spot signs of over training.
