All plans by this Coach

Length

17 Weeks

Plan Description

4 Paddle workouts per week +2 Strength workouts
16 weeks of preparation to get paddlers ready for a 6-13 mile race.
Originally built for The Graveyard course at the Carolina Cup, this plan would be suitable for any paddler looking to commit to training daily. Expect the strength workouts to become difficult, and the on water work to peak with very high intensities. Volume will decrease as intensity increases, prepping you for your best race yet. In the event of inclement weather, perform the paddling exercises as another form of cardio i.e. biking or running. As written, Thursdays are off days and Sundays are long paddle days.
