Etape du Tour Training Plan - Compete

About this plan

This plan is built for Etape du Tour, start to finish. It is shaped around a long, hard day on the bike, running 17 weeks at a big 13.8 hours a week, so you know exactly what you are signing up for.

Three weeks up, ease back, repeat: that rhythm is what makes the fitness stick. Intensity is rationed rather than sprayed around, every target reads off your own FTP and threshold power, and the plan gives your endurance, your climbing and the way you put the power down the attention each one needs.

Held to week after week, it is designed to have you racing at the sharp end on the day you race Etape du Tour.
