| Video Discription | I sat down with WorldTour performance coach, John Wakefield, to discuss how to do three training sessions to improve their functional threshold power. I also ask John a number of questions around the importance of FTP to ones cycling performance, and find out how to train FTP if one doesn't have a power meter or heart rate monitor. A big thank you to John for his knowledge and openness in sharing this training information.
