This plan builds from a 14hr week to a 15.5hr followed by a week of reduced hours to allow riders to rest and prepare for the next hard block. It is designed to help riders build the base they need to both get into shape as well as build off of for there season goals.
I recommend doing this plan in conjuction with Mid Volume Base Block 1 and 2. While this plan does not increase hours compared to Block 2 it adds in intensity with Tempo and Threshold intervals to help further build aerobic enduarnce and prepare for higher intenisty intervals.
