Day 083 - Uphill fartlek

30-minute uphill bike (level 4)        Training via ActiveMail

DO A 30-MINUTE UPHILL (UP) BIKE AT LEVEL 4 INTENSITY (80-90% of MHR): Warm up for 10-15 minutes with easy- to moderate-paced cycling. Do this workout as an uphill fartlek. Choose a hilly loop and go hard when you want and easy when you want. This workout is ideal for a mountain bike. Cool down for 10 minutes by riding back down the hill. If you're thinking about investing in a triathlon bike, you should know that they're not the same as a standard road bike. The frame geometry is different, allowing you to ride more comfortably in the "aero" position.
