Plan Description
“Increase your fat max, improve your threshold, and finish long and hard rides stronger!”
This training plan is designed for the cyclist who can train around 10-12 hours a week and who is looking for some significant improvements in overall endurance, fat burning ability, threshold power, and fatigue resistance. By training below threshold with lots of zone 2, tempo, and sweet spot, you will make some exciting gains in your FTP and VO2 max power by the end of the training plan. The plan builds with 3 week blocks followed by an easier week. Optional power testing over 20 minutes is included on week 1 and week 8 to evaluate your gains.
Designed by former professional and multiple national champion coach Simon Kessler of Simon Says Cycling, coach Simon has coached for 25+ years and has enjoyed an incredible track record as a coach which includes state and national champions on multiple continents in road, track and mountain biking. Some of Simon’s clients have won world championship medals and gone on to wear the yellow jersey in the Tour de France. With this plan you receive 30+ years of top level experience in a super effective training plan that will lead to fast improvements.
Prior to this plan you should have a good level of fitness and have been training consistently for 10-12 weeks for a minimum of 6 hours/week.
