Plan Description
*ENGLISH BELOW*
📌 Worum geht's?
Dieser Plan baut auf dem VO₂max-Booster und dem FTP-Booster auf. Du hast das Dach angehoben und die Schwelle nach oben geschoben – jetzt machen wir dich rennhart. Over-Under-Intervalle, Tempo Changes, Surges und Race-Finish-Simulationen bringen dir bei, im Rennen zu bestehen: Attacken kontern, Tempoverschärfungen überleben und am Ende noch Druck machen.
📅 Der Plan startet 8 Wochen vor deinem Zielrennen. Wähle dein Startdatum so, dass der letzte Tag des Plans auf deinen Race Day fällt.
🎯 Der Plan macht dich Race Ready. Der letzte Baustein vor dem Saisonhöhepunkt – ideal als Vorbereitung auf RAD RACE Events. Du lernst, um die Schwelle herum zu arbeiten, Laktat unter Belastung zu managen und mit müden Beinen noch zu attackieren.
⚠️ ADVANCED – nicht für Einsteiger! Zwei Key Sessions pro Woche mit Over-Under-Intervallen, Surges und Race Simulations. Dazu FATmax und Long Rides mit Race-Finish. Solide FTP-Basis und Erfahrung mit strukturiertem Training vorausgesetzt.
đź’¬ Was dich erwartet
Mittwoch: Over-Under-Intervalle + Tempo Changes
Samstag: VOâ‚‚max-Opener + Race Simulation (der Renntag im Training)
Dienstag & Sonntag: FATmax-Sessions (Sonntag mit Race-Finish-Block)
Donnerstag: Optionaler Easy Ride
Progressive Steigerung über 8 Wochen: Wochen 1–3 Aufbau, Woche 4 Erholung, Wochen 5–7 Peak Rennspezifik, Woche 8 Taper. Einfach, klar, brutal effektiv.
🛠️ Was du brauchst
Powermeter oder smarter Trainer
Aktuelle FTP! Vorher testen oder Werte aus Leistungsdiagnostik nutzen
Wichtig: Over-Unders ≠All-Out! Die "Over"-Phasen sind kontrolliert über der Schwelle, nicht maximale Attacken. Lerne den Rhythmus.
đź”§ Anpassungen erlaubt!
Plan funktioniert eigenständig – Zwift, andere Plattform oder outdoor
Indoor: Ein- und Ausfahren kĂĽrzen
Der Plan gehört dir – beliebig oft wiederholbar

🇬🇧 ENGLISH
📌 What's the plan?
Builds on the VO₂max Booster and FTP Booster. You've raised the ceiling and pushed your threshold up – now we make you race hard. Over-under intervals, tempo changes, surges and race-finish simulations teach you how to survive in a race: counter attacks, handle pace changes and still push hard at the end.
đź“… This plan starts 8 weeks before your target race. Choose your start date so the last day of the plan falls on your race day.
🎯 This plan makes you Race Ready. The final building block before your season peak – ideal preparation for RAD RACE events. You'll learn to oscillate around threshold, manage lactate under load, and attack on tired legs.
⚠️ ADVANCED – not for beginners! Two key sessions per week with over-under intervals, surges and race simulations. Plus FATmax and long rides with race-finish blocks. Solid FTP base and experience with structured training required.
đź’¬ What to expect
Wednesday: Over-under intervals + tempo changes (the craft)
Saturday: VOâ‚‚max opener + race simulation (race day in training)
Tuesday & Sunday: FATmax sessions (Sunday with race-finish block)
Thursday: Optional easy ride
Progressive overload across 8 weeks: Weeks 1–3 build, week 4 recovery, weeks 5–7 peak race specificity, week 8 taper. Simple, clear, brutally effective.
🛠️ What you need
Power meter or smart trainer
Current FTP! Test before or use diagnostic values
Important: Over-unders ≠all-out! The "over" phases are controlled above threshold, not maximal attacks. Learn the rhythm.
đź”§ Modifications allowed!
Works standalone – Zwift, other platforms or outdoors
Indoor: shorten warm-up/cool-down
The plan is yours – repeat anytime
