Plan details
- Training for a Gran Fondo or Century ride? To conquer the mountains, you need two things: A High Power-to-Weight Ratio and Raw Leg Strength.
- This 16-week plan delivers both through a sophisticated 2-Block Periodization strategy used by pro cyclists.
- Training for a Gran Fondo or Century but hate the gym? This 16-week plan is designed to optimize your Power-to-Weight Ratio using a sophisticated 2-Block Periodization strategy.
🚀 2-PHASE PERIODIZATIONWe don't just repeat the same workouts for 4 months. We evolve the training to break through plateaus.
- PHASE 1: THE ENGINE (Weeks 1-8)
- Goal: Body Recomposition & Hypertrophy
- Cycling: 4 Rides/Week
- Gym: Hypertrophy Focus (8-12 Reps). We build the muscle engine and fix imbalances with unilateral work (Split Squats) and volume
- PHASE 2: THE PEAK (Weeks 9-16)
- Goal: Max Strength & Power
- Cycling: Increases to 5 Rides/Week. Intensity spikes with longer VO2 Max intervals to build deep endurance
- Gym: Max Strength Focus (4-6 Reps). We drop the reps and increase the weight to recruit maximum motor units. This builds the "Torque" you need to push big gears on steep climbs
🎒 EQUIPMENT NEEDED
Indoor Bike / Smart Trainer
Gym: Full Commercial Gym (Barbells, Dumbbells, Machines).
