This program is designed for those who have a smart trainer or use a power meter.
The programs starts with an FTP benchmark test where you the rider chose between either a beginner test, with 2, 8 minute intervals or a single 20 minute effort, both with adequate warm-up and recoveries. This test is done purely rate of perceived exertions. Once the test is complete you are able to establish your power zones for training.
You then begin an eight week program choosing to do either 2 or 3 rides per week, If you choose the 2 ride option perform the Tuesday and Thursday sessions.
Once complete you will repeat your FTP test, making sure to do the same test you did on the first day of training.
Sessions include VO2 max, power, big gear, interval and recovery sessions.
