This plan is ideal for anyone looking to improve FTP and endurance prior to racing. All communication would be through Training Peaks should the athlete require it. The most effective equipment for this plan would be a power meter but you could still follow this plan using heart rate.
I am a female coach living in England where I coach at a Go Ride Club with riders under 16. I am married to a cyclist (previous triathlete who completed Bolton Ironman). We have 2 boys, the oldest who loves racing road while the younger much prefers a social café ride on a Sunday! I have taken up coaching and a love to help others back to fitness and to improve their riding following a breast cancer diagnosis.
