8 Weeks to Better Fitness
Written by Tim Cusick, TrainingPeaks WKO Product Leader and master coach with BaseCamp
About This Plan
This 8-week training plan is designed for both masters racers and recreational racers, and it includes targets for heart rate, power (classic training zones), and perceived exertion.
The workouts use classic training zones and can be used in the traditional format or as structured workouts that can load to your smart trainer or select devices (Garmin, RGT, ErgVideo Free, TrainerRoad, and more) so you can see your workout and interval numbers right on your screen.
Included with your plan:
- Instruction sheet (attached to the first day of the plan)
- Testing
- Strength training routine from Menachem Brodie
