Summary
Generally as nonspecific training that advances general fitness and specific training that prepares an athlete for a particular race. When performing a combo workout you receive small doses of different types of training and are less likely to neglect a particular physiological system, yet also don’t overdose on any one type of training.
Stats
Sample Day 1
Like a solid investment portfolio, your training should be diversified and well-balanced. It should have a mix of different types of workouts and pace variation-V02 max intervals, tempo runs, progression runs and near maximum speed intervals. Each of these is an important piece in a balanced program.

Sample Day 3
*Warm up 15 preparing for a hard effort at the end of it.
The 20-minute test is the preferred format for newer riders primarily because new riders simply don’t have an established feel for riding well above FTP — which is what’s necessary during the short, pVO2max efforts necessary for the 8 Minute Test.
It’s also an ideal format to break into shorter, more manageable segments. By breaking the 20-minute effort into four 5-minute segments, riders can subtly tweak their effort every so often based on longer periods of muscular feedback, i.e. a rider can slightly reduce their pace every 5 minutes based on perceived exertion or how their body feels.
The downside is simply that it’s a relatively long effort and pacing is an issue for less experienced riders.
Additionally, many riders play it safe during the longer formats and end up finishing with too much gas left in the tank. Evidence of this is illustrated via a 2 or 3-minute surge in power at the end of an effort that would ideally be evenly-paced over the entire 20 minutes.
As a result, their FTP and relative power levels are likely to be underestimated a bit (or a lot) rendering all subsequent FTP-based workouts less productive than they would be otherwise.
