Welcome to Field notes
Why Field notes exists, what to expect from this section, and how the methodology behind Superfly translates into the day-to-day work of training.
This is the first post in Field notes. Here we write down the methodology behind Superfly in plain language. Also the small decisions inside a training plan, and why we make them.
Behind Superfly
Superfly is being built by two cycling enthusiasts, Vidas and Andrejus. Read further posts to check our personal stories.
Why a writing section
The landing page says Superfly builds training around lactate thresholds and the Norwegian model. That is the what. The why needs more space than a feature card:
- why an aerobic threshold session has exactly this duration
- why a recovery week sits where it sits
- why we avoid mid-zone grinding, which fills most self-coached training
Field notes is where we explain it.
What you will find here
- Methodology. Training concepts in cycling terms, with links to the research.
- Race notes. What worked, what did not, what I would change next time.
- Application notes. How the method becomes a real training week in the app.
Same rule as in training: hard days hard, easy days easy. No grinding in the middle, also in the writing.
A note on AI
Some posts are drafted with AI help. I review and edit every post before it goes live. AI helps with the mechanical part. The methodology and the judgement are ours. “We” or “I” in a post is always a person, not a model.
If something here is wrong, tell us and we will fix it.
