Plan Description

Threshold Cycling Training Plan: Maximize Your Gains

Ready to push your limits and make serious strength gains? This Threshold Cycling Training Plan is designed to help you increase your power and endurance efficiently using a TSS-based approach, maximizing gains with the least time spent on the bike.

Ideal for well-trained athletes, this 8-week program is structured for those who can commit to 4-5 days of riding per week (averaging over 9 hours per week) with the flexibility to train up to 6 days a week.
