Isn't it wild how we cling to the idea that TT pace intervals are the gold standard for power? I mean, seriously, how does grinding out those long, steady efforts prepare us for the chaos of a crit? We're not just pedaling in a straight line; we're dodging, sprinting, and reacting.
What about the mental side too? Racing isn't just about the physical; it’s tactical, a game of cat and mouse. Those intervals can leave us mentally unprepared for the unpredictability. Are we really covering all bases? Are we just fooling ourselves thinking those numbers translate to real race scenarios?
