Plan Description

This 4-week training plan is designed for the intermediate or advanced novice cyclist looking to improve their Functional Threshold Power (FTP) and extend their Time To Exhaustion (TTE). This training plan starts at 7.25 hours per week all the way to 8.5 hours per week with an average of 5% increase in Training Stress Score (TSS) per week.

To know your FTP, we have placed one of Endurance Lab PH System's (ELS) FTP tests on the first day of the program. This FTP test is adapted from the original test designed by Dr. Andrew Coggan and Master Coach Hunter Allen. Get the average power from the 20-minute test and multiply it by 0.95 to get your FTP.
