Pro Training camps

redvision

So I've always been curious about the training that takes place during training camps, particularly pre GT. Reading some comments after his TDF win, Vingegaard said this season they've done far harder training camps at altitude and for longer periods. So what do the training camps involve? Is it simply just riding each day at a higher altitude with some specific drills (high tempo stuff), or is there more to it? (Other activities like running, climbing etc).

And we presume less like this, which does actually seem mega funny.

Ah, the good old days of Bjrne's mad camps....
