This 20-week training plan includes 5 cycles per week and 2 body weight, strength sessions per week. (7 sessions in total per week)
It involves 9hours 30min to 13hours of training per week and 1 rest day per week.
Cycle Sessions vary from 1hour for interval sessions - 6hours endurance rides.
Interval sessions on the bike are designed for an indoor trainer with power. It is possible to do these sessions outside, but a power meter on your bike will then be required.
Home Strength Sessions are 45min, and include videos of the exercises. Gym access not required.
Stretching and Foam Rolling Videos are also included to optimise recovery.
This structured training plan uses Power and Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE).
A two week taper in the training plan insures that you are fresh and fast on race day.
This plan is designed to get you in great shape for a 150km-200km Mountain Bike Race.
