ABILITY
'AGE GROUP' means you are a strong biker, regularly high-placing top 5-10% in your bike leg. You may also be a cat 2/3 cyclist or very strong 70.3 biker moving up to IM. It's likely that you intend to qualify for AG World/European/National Champs or have already. View guide bike splits in Training Plan Sample Week 'Welcome...' below

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. 4 week build prepares you, then weekday focus is on raising FTP, THR and resilience with taxing indoor sessions. Weekends see rides focussed on IM effort tolerance using '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. Plans feature a 1 week taper, 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. Personalised training zones are created by a factored-in-fatigue-curve bike test that isn't standard. 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
