Plan Description

This Competition Phase plan prepares adult amateur Downhill riders (ages 18+) for peak performance in races or timed events.

Training focuses on maintaining anaerobic power, refining technical execution, and maximizing efficiency under fatigue.

Riders complete race simulations, timed segments, and start practice sessions to sharpen focus and execution. Attention is given to tire setup, suspension tuning, and line choice strategies for different terrain. Alternatives such as shuttled or hike-a-bike runs are built in where lift access is unavailable.

While not included in online plans, Comprehensive Training Plans also include mental preparation including visualization, composure under pressure, and race-day routines to ensure confidence and precision.
