OPTIMISE YOUR SESSION

ANALYSE YOUR DATA

Analysing your training data is a critical part of seeing where improvements can be made. I swear by the Performance Management Chart on Training Peaks.

check tyre width

Optimising your tyre width is a great way to gain free speed, so select a tyre that fits the profile of your rim. Also look at running latex tubes – that’s 2 more watts if you’re not running tubeless.

TRAIN YOUR BODY

A session like this burns a lot of glycogen so refuelling is crucial. You need to get your body to absorb anywhere between 80-100g of carbs every hour, so practising in training is key.
