Plan Description
Maximal aerobic power (VO2max) determines the maximal amount of energy you can produce by aerobic metabolism and a key performance indicator for endurance performance such as in road cycling, time-trialing, mountainbiking, triathlon and duathlon.
This program offers you 9 structured workouts to improve your VO2max and FTP on the bike. The workouts are based on the newest scientific results in exercise physiology.
For best results: combine these workouts with recovery exercises, extensive endurance training and core stability training. Anaerobic threshold training is not advised in combination because it will interfere with the training adaptations induced by the specific VO2max and FTP intervals.
Do not embark upon an intensive training plan if injured or feeling unwell. If in doubt consult your doctor before you commence training.
