Leveraging Lab and Field Testing to Create a Bigger Aerobic Engine

Topics Covered In This Episode:

• To build base properly, you must ride aerobically (zone 2 & below)
• You can only build so much base, then you have to move on in tuning your engine (move beyond zone 2, or from foundation to main floor)
• Your best engine, or house that you build, will be a combination of the intelligent work you do on the bike combined with how much time you actually have to put into it. Volume works.
• Your Ford Focus is fine! This means if you have the budget (available time) to afford a Ford Focus (limited training time) rather than a Porsche (unlimited training time), optimize to get everything you can out of the Ford.
