There’s a misconception among cyclists that anything less than two hours on the bike isn’t a good workout. But that’s simply not true. Chad Timmerman, the head coach for cycling training app TrainerRoad, says that his ideal workouts are “high density,” meaning they pack a ton of hurt into a short window of time. To do this, Timmerman relies on hard efforts with short rest intervals for carefully targeted workouts where everything has a purpose and no time is wasted.
