Two example pages from the book
A look at the contents and the prologue. Everything from how to test your 5min power to the workouts I used to improve it.
Want to develop your five-minute power but aren’t sure how to approach your training?
In this short e-book, I share the approach I used during my 2026 season, when my five-minute power increased by approximately 6%. You’ll find the interval sessions I used, real training data and examples of how I organised my weeks while working full-time and during holidays.
Inside the book:
A simple explanation of five-minute power and why it matters.
How I prepare for and perform a five-minute power test.
My favourite interval sessions, including hard-start, Bossi and short intervals.
How I progressed my training by increasing power.
Graphs showing my interval progression.
Example training weeks, recovery considerations and nutrition habits.
Written for cyclists who train with a power meter and want practical ideas without working through a lengthy science textbook.
This is my personal training experience, supported by relevant research. Use it as inspiration to adapt your own training; individual results will vary.
