This Base Phase plan is built for youth downhill riders (ages 12–17) training 6–12 hours per week. It is designed for student-athletes who are making the transition from a return to routine at school, and who require a more efficient use of time to allow for academic and athletic success.
The focus is on building aerobic fitness, general strength, and foundational downhill skills in a low-pressure, fun-first environment.
Riders will engage in Zone 2 trail rides, intro to tempo riding, and strength training.
