      in the master 40+ cross country build peak and race plan

      week 4 day 2 “Warm up well then do two sets of 3 x 3 minutes in power L5 with 3 minutes easy spin
      recoveries between intervals and 5 mins easy recovery between sets.”

      is that (3,3,3,3,3,3) 5 (3,3,3,3,3,3) or does the 5 minute rest between sets replace the last 3 minute rest on the 1st set.

      Thanks,

      Craig Dupree
