How to lift a bull

There's a greek myth about a strongman who wanted to lift a bull over his shoulders.

He trained for this by finding a newly born bullock. Everyday he lifted it so, slowly but surely, eventually achieved his ambition.

The same thing works for me in training. Just pick a time*power and ride it easy. Then each repeat up it by a couple of watts or seconds. 

I've just started to do this for 20 minute efforts. I'll have 3 different targets reflecting RPE of riding in familiar and less familiar postions: On the hoods, on the drops and full TT.
