I've built this plan on research around the second Lactate Threshold (LT2). It aims to increase your LT2 as well as the time you can tolerate riding at that power. Volume and intensity will increase throughout the plan.
An FTP Test is performed toward the end of the plan to monitor progress.
As always this plan is simple to follow by combining science with results-proven practice. Enjoy!
I’m a cycling coach and elite cyclist based in Duesseldorf, Germany. My coaching philosophy is simple: focus on timeless principles that are grounded in decades of endurance training science and observed in elite endurance athletes. My training plans reflect this. Easy to follow and based on evidence, my plans balance intensity and volume to optimize adaptation and minimize burnout. Built for the long game.
