Plan Description
Sport: Performance Bike
Includes Strength and Conditioning, Plyo, Warm ups and Cool downs
Distance | Event: One day, multi day, TT and Crit racing
Suitable for: Age Group | Performance Weekday indoor weekend outdoor
You will be a long-term athlete, experienced and proficient in your sport and used to training regularly but maybe with little structure or accountability. This programme is suitable for an athlete at the top of their game wanting marginal improvements that make a real difference or an athlete wanting to take the next step up to being one of the top performing in their sport. These performance programmes and their data driven rationale and integral fitness ramp rates will ensure you can become the best you can be with many protocols taken from the UK’s high-performance centres.
Intro week, then 8 Week Cycle Boost Plan Using HEART RATE Start anytime. First week is testing and prep week, training begins in earnest week two. Finishes with a test in week 10. 4 sessions a week, including sub threshold sweetspot, threshold Criss cross and pro rider crit power sessions with optional weekend road ride [can be done indoors] Average Session duration 55 mins, 6 plus hours a week including longer weekend ride
This plan requires a degree of committment, and a willingness to suffer a little, especially the criss cross workouts. Good luck, you'll come out a much stronger cyclist. Following this programme for 4 months last year resulted on one athlete adding 58 watts to his FTP, and moving his whole zones down, so his top end before was his zone 3-4 by the end of it
