      1/2. With a power meter on board you should ride these intervals in power L5 aiming for the highest wattage you can per interval.

      3. Intensity is more important than being on a hill. Doing this workout on flat roads works nicely. A good option for short hills if you have one, is to start the interval on the flat run into the hill and finish it at the top of the hill.

      Doing these intervals outside is much much much better than on the trainer provided conditions are safe (no ice etc).
