v4.0 26-Week Complete BASE TO RACE Plan for A-Events of 1.5-3 Hours in Duration w/ Daily HRV Readiness Modifiers

While we offer each phase of our training progression individually, this plans bundles them all together in one convenient package!
This plan is comprised of all four training phases that make up our successful training progression taking you from Base to Race for a peak performance. The four phases are:

  • 4 week Base Prep

  • 14 week Base Builder

  • 8 week Race Prep & Race

Our plans follow the POLARIZED TRAINING philosophy with a focus on low-intensity aerobic fitness while layering in progressively higher intensity work as the plan progresses through base training; followed by an extended emphasis on the event specific energy systems that you will rely heavily on based on your event duration. Typical weeks consist of two intensity structured sessions, 2-3 aerobic sessions, and 2 gym sessions, with the flexibility to adjust as desired to fit your needs.
