CONTENT
Av 6hrs over 3 workouts/week. Peak 7hrs
Fresh, different, highly rated and current. Many sessions pro derived. We follow strong-before-long, and fast-before-far principles. 24 weeks gives you a gradual ramp building into a weekday indoor-trainer focus on power development - raising threshold HR and resilience. Weekends feature rides focussed on IM effort tolerance before moving to 'wrap and fill' sessions - easy endurance rides blending IM specific intervals. Pre race-day you complete a series of bike leg simulations at varying intensities designed to test your run-off ability. Plans feature a 1 week taper, a flexible race week download schedule and full S&C, PLUS free access to the world's most comprehensive endurance racing and training content
PERSONALISED & PROVEN
Long Distance | IM BIKEmodular plans offer a race-proven format that has powered 100's of multisporters to surpass their race-day goals. Your personalised Threshold heart rate training zones are set via your week 1 bike test. Race-specific rides are at global average intensity percentages for athletes of your ability. All workouts have built-in progression challenge - they get tougher as you get more race-fit
CUSTOM MODULAR
You’re probably not equally strong across all multisport disciplines. Most one-ability plans don't adjust for this - you crush some workouts, others are a struggle. Asymmetric training across disciplines means lost performance gains. For you, the uncommon athlete chasing long distance minutes and seconds, it's time to train different!
racestronger®CUSTOM single-discipline modules allow you to finesse each of your individual disciplines by ability level intensity and training metric and combine into one-fit-for-purpose plan. They integrate together seamlessly to create a perfectly weighted 'no compromise' endurance training programme designed by you, for you. Create yours here
