Plan Description
MTB Base - 3 + Months away from Race or Goal
This plan assumes you will ride your mountain bike outside and you are in good form and have intermediate or advanced ability.
Consider one of our other base plans if you are riding inside or would like less intense training for your base phase. Check out our Best Selling Offroad Base Plan here
This is a plan designed to build and maintain MTB fitness and skill when racing is not important or you are 3 or more months away from a race. This might be the fall or during a period of unimportant races or for those not racing seriously.
The plan assumes you are working and have around 6-10 hrs to train a week. Notes are included to reduce or add time as you are able during the plan.
A general core routine is included.
Some workouts include a download file that can be added to an indoor trainer or bike computer if you like. Given this is a MTB plan there are not many downloadable workouts as the focus is on MTB riding!
