| Carmichael said the intervals can be "four 20-minute blocks at a

|
| He echoed Armstrong's reliance on aerobic threshold training.

| 20 minute long intervals at a HR of 184? Ouch...
| Anybody know what Armstrong's max HR or AT HR are?

Be like Lance - you wish:
Ever wondered what kind of numbers the boy can generate? Lance's coach,
Chris Carmichael sent us these key stats for LA:

Resting heart rate: 32-34
VO2ml/kg: 83.8
Max power at VO2: 600 watts
Max heart rate: 201
Lactate Threshold HR: 178
Time Trial HR: 188-192
Pedal rpm's during TT: 95-100
Climbing rpm's: 80-85, sometimes faster when attacking
Average HR during endurance rides (4-6 hrs): 124-128
Average watts during endurance rides: 245-280 watts
Training miles/hours, endurance rides: 5- 6 hrs / 100-130miles


I guess it's not (about) the bike.
