If you are not training for a specific event or not needing to improve specific weaknesses, then your primary focus could be to increase your threshold power.

The plan is power based. An indoor trainer is recommended but not essential.
Fitness level: Competitive or cyclist with a high level of fitness who has trained at least four to five times a week, with some sessions focused on high intensity and on/off the bike strength work.
When to start: Provided that you are reasonably fit... Any time of the year.

The Plan Layout
Three blocks. Each block has two weeks of specific workouts that vary in duration, intensity and frequency, and rest days. Week two is followed by a recovery week to shed accumulated fatigue and prevent overtraining and injury.
To optimize training, workouts are scheduled in a specific order to match expected fatigue, and allow for adequate recovery times based on workout intensity. Additionally, training nutrition and hydration guidance, and strength and flexibility exercises are included to enhance the overall quality of your workouts.
Day 1 of the plan starts with a functional threshold power test to ensure that you are training at the right level and ends with an assessment in the final week.
