What is the 75 rule in cycling?

The 75% rule in cycling training is a guideline to spend at least 75% of your weekly riding time at an easy, aerobic intensity (below 75% of your maximum heart rate or Functional Threshold Power), building endurance, with the remaining 25% dedicated to harder, higher-intensity efforts to improve performance. This approach, often part of polarized training, prevents overtraining by ensuring most riding is restorative while still incorporating key hard work for adaptation, avoiding the common mistake of spending too much time in the unsustainable "Zone 3" (moderately hard).
