This is the Redeemer Ride. It's inspired by two of my favorite news stories of the week: lighting striking the middle finger of the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, and a nun giving birth to a baby boy in Italy. Catholic guilt followed the laughs these stories provided, and seeking redemption seemed the right way to go!
The workout consists of doing a series of 3 challenging things (Spin Ups, Steep Climb, Attacks). This series is repeated 4 times with the goal of increasing Watts (power output) each step in the series. Workout begins with a 2 song warm-up lasting about 7 minutes. The opening video - the brilliant and newest Bad Lip Reading video - helps get the smiles going! I use body weight as an indicator for tracking Watts. Having the goal of reaching, maintaining, and exceeding your body weight in Watts works well for most intermediate indoor riders.
