Discipline: Criterium

## Athlete Goal
- Perform strongly in short high-intensity races (30–90 min)
- Improve anaerobic capacity (W') and repeatability of short efforts
- Improve sprint and acceleration

## Training Focus Priority
1. Repeatability
2. VO2max
3. Anaerobic capacity (W')

## Weekly Emphasis
- mandatory: 1 VO2max, 1 race-specific (sprint/attack) session
- secondary: limited long ride (volume maintenance only)

## Discipline-Specific Rules (CRITICAL)
- prioritize short high-intensity intervals: 30/30, 40/20, microbursts
- include sprint efforts (Z6–Z7)
- simulate race dynamics: accelerations out of corners, attacks,
  incomplete recovery between efforts
- avoid as primary focus: long steady rides, long threshold intervals

## Discipline Workouts
- 30/30, 40/20 (VO2max/anaerobic) → tag vo2max-<level>
- microbursts, sprint/attack repeats → tag race-specific-<level>
