"Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe" - Abraham Lincoln
A Training Plan for Advanced athletes who have the time and motivation to place training as the main focus of their lives. This plan has a specific focus on improving your endurance and Sportive / Gran Fondo abilities, to take you to a PB or Gold standard time. It includes a 2 week taper prior to your main event. It allows for a Sunday club run, sportive, or group ride, once a week to aid progression, and skills related to group riding. Saturday and Sunday sessions have been built to compliment each other and can be swapped around for those who normally group ride on Saturday.
