Stimulus and Strategy:
It’s just you and a bike in today’s workout. Manage your pace based on the duration of each effort. As the time of the work intervals decreases, push the pace harder. Pay attention to the cadence or RPMs on the monitor. Try to maintain a consistent cadence or challenge yourself to increase your cadence as the time decreases.
Scaling:
Reduce the number of rounds.
In case of injury or limitation, perform today’s effort on any machine available.
Intermediate option: Same as Rx’d.
