    Why This Ben Healy Workout Works So Well

    Brendan Housler and Landry Bobo break down a Ben Healy “lactate clearance” session: 3 x 10 minutes with 2 minutes at ~120% FTP followed immediately by 8 minutes at ~85–90% FTP, with 10 minutes easy between sets. They explain that the goal isn’t the surge itself but the ability to settle back into strong aerobic riding while clearing and reusing lactate, mirroring real race demands like attacks, covering moves, and riding hard after climbs or corners. They discuss why many riders can hit VO2 efforts but struggle to continue at tempo afterward, and share ways to progress the workout (longer hard starts, adding surges, 40/20s into tempo, more repeats, or adjusting recovery). They suggest using this work in build phases, pre-race prep, and even year-round as lighter “touches” between harder blocks.📧Email Landry@evoq.bike and Brendan@evoq.bike👉Coach Bios: https://www.evoq.bike/brendan-housler-bio – https://www.evoq.bike/landry-bobo-bioLandry on Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/1317545Brendan on Strava: https://www.strava.com/pros/5889Chapters:00:00 Podcast Intro00:05 Ben Healy Workout01:14 Why It Works02:11 Lactate Explained03:45 Common Mistakes04:44 Workout Progressions06:01 More Variations07:40 Steady State Debate09:08 When To Use It09:58 Year Round Touches10:57 Wrap Up And Links👋🏽 If you're new to the channel, welcome!

    Over:Unders Are the Ultimate Interval Upgrade, Here’s Why

    Landry and Brendan break down why over-under intervals may be the best “bang for your buck” for raising FTP and building fatigue resistance, arguing they can outperform steady-state threshold work while better matching real race demands like surges, climbs, and pacelines. They explain FTP as the balance between lactate production and lactate clearance, and how alternating time just under and just over threshold trains your body to clear (and even recycle) lactate more effectively, including a nod to the Cori cycle. They also discuss when steady efforts still matter (e.g., certain time trials), warn against overdoing race specificity, and share ideas for making over-unders more fun, customizable, and improvised based on how you feel, plus where to find examples, coaching, and training plans.
