This is the first phase of your training to prepare for Chefs Cycle 2020 in Bend Or.
We will begin to set a base of fitness in the O2/endurance energy system upon which we will build your lactic threshold and Vo2 Max.
Your goals are:
1. Become consistent in your training. Make it a daily priority. Add workouts to your schedule and hold your self accountable. Create good habits around your training.
2. If you miss a workout, move on. This phase will build into the coming phases. If you move workouts down the line there will be a ripple into the next rounds of training.
3. Ask question of Coach Adam and Coach Colin. We can be reached at cizzard@trainright.com and apulford@trainright.com
4. Finally- have fun! This is for a great cause AND it will give you personal fitness goals!
A final note- you can add more time to the rides but keep the pace to the theme of the block. IE endurance pace. Do not add intensity. Also, never add so much time in the saddle that you are not able to complete the upcoming workouts. Remember goal 1- consistency.
I have been a full time strength and endurance coach since 1998. Along the way I have worked with athletes of all levels and disciplines in cycling, swimming and motorsports. Since 2007 I have also focused greatly on development of gravity based mountain bike athletes and enduro riders. Many of whom finding success at the highest levels of national and international competition.
