Suitable for an unconditioned athlete new to the sport or discipline, or someone returning after a long layoff from regular activity, perhaps injury or child birth. You may be doing something important to you or an event for a charity. You get a progressive programme based on your chosen way of measuring effort that’s clear, easy to follow and starts with testing and manageable sessions that grow more challenging as you improve. We recommend that you book a target event or race to provide motivation and announce your intentions on social media, so you get support from your friends and family

You'll need a turbo trainer or indoor spin bike, or a gym that has one for the midweek sessions, as the plan focuses on indoor efforts where it's a lot safer to work hard. The weekends start with shorter sharper sessions, you can always add a bit of to and fro on if you want, but then soon build to include hills and faster workouts that replicate a race or a longer distance event up to an hour or so. The sessions are varied, to music or TV and keep you engaged whilst getting you fitter and faster.
