One of the most iconic rock songs of all time. Increasing resistance climb with a finishing sprint

My favourite part of this sprinting tune is that I coach the sprints as 30/30/60 but secretly, they are 33/33/1:07 so I extract an extra 13 seconds Rest until :30 then do Aggressive / Regular Then at 2:30 into the song, bring it on home! Double time! “Let’s see how far we’ve come!” Take this opportunity to catch your breath and get some water. Running fast until 4:30ĥ:45-5:54 fast then slow until 6:15, back down from thereįast climbing, stand up and ride it into the songįlat and fast on this kick-up-the-volume-and-dance song! Power sprints from 0:45-1:10 and 1:30-1:55. Starts as a heavy, gets really heavy until 1:15ģ:15 sit, 3:30 speed up. The guitar solos and chorus sections are reasonably brief interludes for four sprints of almost equal duration.Ĭlimb baby climb! Slow and painful, cadence is down to nothing This Hendrix classic is perfect for sprints.

Fast start then come out of the saddle, and settle in for the grind to the top. :30 Standing fast climb with :15 seated sprints

Extra credit for managing another Power 20 at 3:24 and holding on till the fade-out. Nothing fancy here unless you are ambitious and feeling super strong, in which case… Bust out a Power 10 at 1:33 and a Power 20 at 2:40. :30 rest – Sprints – 30 – 45 – 60 – 45 – 30 (no 15 second sprint, no time for it) Rolling Hill (increase and decrease) with sprints, run super fast into the end, then begin cool-down in last :30 Stand and power sprint as hard and fast as possible through the chorus (start when he says “we didn’t start the fire”) Use for jumps during fast part, recoveries in betweenĭrills – standing alternating regular/aggressiveĤ minute climb followed by sprints for the last 2 minutes x sec stand / x sec seated – 2 times at :20, 2 at :15, all the rest at :10 Slow and steady climbing, standing or seated. Alternate between aggressive and regular stance every 60/45/30 seconds. Take 30 seconds for some well-deserved recovery, then take the tension to 4/10 and come out of the saddle for a climb. Work the clock standing -> 7-8-9 and backįantastic song to spin to. Here’s an ever evolving list of songs I’ve used or plan to use in my cycling class: Artist
