Plan Description
This plan serves as the perfect entry into training after your offseason break. No matter if you target the UCI Gran Fondo Series, a Stage Race, Bike Marathons, or Gran Fondo Worlds this plan will lay the foundations for your specific preparation. If you have +/- 10 hours (8-12h) to train weekly this plan will suit you well. Also, if you come back from an injury or a longer break this plan will increase your base fitness.
The base plan is divided into three blocks that will prepare your body for the demands of the build phase. Intensity and volume will carefully increase throughout the plan to avoid overtraining or injury. The weekly structure follows a 3:2 block, meaning 3 days of training, rest day, and 2 days of training. The last block contains some important performance testing and more intensity to enter the build with a complete power profile. Alongside lots of easy endurance training, skill sessions and strength training will be integrated reasonably. Additionally, fuelling and recovery guidelines will complement the sessions to maximize performance.
As always, the plan is simple and combines science with results-proven practice. Enjoy!
