Plan Description
Get Super Race Fit and Ready to Compete at your Best in Cyclocross Racing!
Training plan description: This training plan is designed to get you super race fit with a limited amount of time to train. You should already have good fitness and have some experience doing competitive rides or races. Typical training weeks are around 6-7 hours/total and key training sessions are planned for Tuesdays, Thursdays, and one day on the weekend. The plan builds in two-week blocks with every third week being an easier week which includes a race simulation effort or actual race option. This plan works great when your first races are 3 or 6 weeks out and will build through your race season.
The 12-week plan progressively builds in TSS with a 3+ point ramp in Fitness each build week. The specific workouts are specific to racing and will bring on great race fitness. The plan is designed to work indoors as well as outdoors and is designed with the Workout Builder feature which provides your power zones calculated from your threshold power value saved in your TrainingPeaks account. Each session displays automatically your personalized power zones. Additional benefits of the Workout Builder format include direct training session download to your Garmin or Wahoo device and training session upload to Zwift, TrainingRoad, CycleOps and more.
