✅ Structured Progression
🏁 Phase 1 (Weeks 1–12): Build your aerobic base, strength, and technical skills.
🚴 Phase 2 (Weeks 13–36): Focus on endurance, brick workouts, and open-water prep. Training time starts at 7 hours/week and peaks at 12.
✅ Strength Training Included
With easy-to-follow videos*, build core and full-body strength to support injury-free performance.
✅ Built for Victoria’s Course Profile
