THE SHORT ANSWER
Jonas Abrahamsen, uno-x mobility rider and 2025 tour de france stage winner, has appeared on the Roadman Cycling Podcast. Here's where Abrahamsen lands on winter training. The positions below are drawn from those conversations, quoted directly.
WHO IS JONAS ABRAHAMSEN?
Jonas Abrahamsen is a Norwegian breakaway specialist for Uno-X Mobility. He became one of the faces of the 2024 Tour de France by leading both the points and mountains classifications in the opening stages, then won Stage 11 in Toulouse in 2025 after attacking from kilometre zero. His Roadman interview is valuable because it separates that verified race record from his first-person account of gaining roughly 18kg, developing more short-duration power and using high-volume, heat and altitude blocks. The individual physiology numbers are his account; the related published heat study reports group results and does not identify individual participants.

IN ABRAHAMSEN’S OWN WORDS
Verbatim from Jonas Abrahamsen’s appearances on the podcast.
“My VO2 max went from around 70–74 to 84 in five weeks. That was pretty good.”
“If I had not gained around 20 kilos in 2020, I would never have reached the Tour de France. Becoming more explosive gave me the power to reach the key positions before cobbles, crosswinds and climbs with more energy left.”
“Before, I struggled to reach 650–700 watts for 30 seconds. Now I can do around 1,100 watts. My one-minute power went from around 600 watts to 850–900.”
