✅ Anyone with a TrainingPeaks-compatible bike computer/device


What You Need:
🚴‍♂️ A geared bike

⏱️ Around 4–5 hours total across 7 days

💥 Structured Starter Plan – Just $4.95

A small commitment to experience structured, coach-led training inside TrainingPeaks.

This is not a generic template.
It’s a guided introduction to how we build aerobic base, cadence control, and progressive load.
