Intervals.icu

A sustained high-Alpine climbing day

Typical sessions

Two big sustained cols: the Arlberg Pass straight off the line, then the long Silvretta grind to around 2,032m.

A high point near 2,000m, where unacclimatised riders pay a small power penalty.

Rolling valley transitions through the Montafon and Paznaun that keep you working between the climbs.

Fast, sometimes wet Alpine descents that stay cold at the top even when the valley is baking.

What your weeks look like

Typical sessions

Sweet spot and threshold climbs: 2x20 at 88 to 94% FTP and 3x15 at 95 to 100%, building col-pace power.

Long sustained efforts of 30 to 45 minutes on a real climb, the length of the Arlberg and Silvretta.

Big climbing days building to a 5 to 6 hour ride with 2,500m of vertical, your Arlberg rehearsal.

Descending practice on fast drops to build handling confidence for the passes.
