This 8-week plan is for a cyclist or triathlete that has a power meter and a threshold wattage of about 340 watts. The athlete can train from 14 to 18 hours a week and has been seriously cycling for at least a year or two, and is excited about really getting faster and improving their racing category. This could be a good plan for any racer with a 320 watts threshold ranging from masters racers to strong Category 3 racers and above. You will improve in 8 weeks, for sure! This cyclist can put in between 2-5 hours on one of your weekend days. Your goal is to increase your threshold wattage and also increase your endurance in the 8 week period. Before beginning you should be able to complete a 100 mile ride and you would like to be able to finish strong in upcoming race in the near future. You are currently riding your bike from 5-7x per week, but lack direction, and exactly how to best use your power meter. You would like to use your power meter to base your training on and also get a real focus to help you make it to the next level. To get the most out of this plan, it's important that you go through the testing protocols first, in order to make sure of your threshold wattage. Please read the accompanying documents in order to review the testing protocols.
