This 10 week TT plan is designed by Coach Kyle of White Pine Athletics to build your threshold, increase your ability to put out high levels of power for longer duration, and to push through fatigue to finish stronger than ever, and hopefully with a distance PR/PB.
This is a competition, or "specialty" plan- and is only recommended if you already have a strong base of aerobic fitness, or have recently completed one of our base/build plans.
Check out our polarized base plan!
This plan is ideally for those racing between 20k and 40k TT.
This 10 week program contains a week of in-depth testing to establish proper training zones and baseline fitness markers. Each workout is structured and can be completed indoors or outdoors with use of a power meter. Additionally, the first seven weeks of the program includes strength training- this drops off at week seven to maximize strength, energy, and freshness heading into race week.
Each session can be performed either inside or outside, and can be exported to devices such as Bryton, Garmin, Wahoo, Zwift, etc.
Included in the plan:
- Initial testing protocol
- Strength and mobility sessions
- Sessions that build on each other from week to week
- Helpful articles, tips and tricks
- Optional substitute for weekend group rides
With a background in Exercise Physiology, I believe in training protocols that are science-based and research-driven. My goal as a coach is to help my athletes apply the proper combination of training stress, intensity, and rest/recovery modalities that will result in peak performance conditions at their target events.
I don't promise success - you need to put in the work for that - but I do offer a plan to guide you along the way.
