About this plan

The whole plan points at one thing: your hot race. Across 5 weeks and roughly 6 hours a week, it builds you toward a block of base and strength work with nothing in there that does not earn its place.

Every target is set as a percentage of your own FTP and threshold power, so it fits you and not some average athlete. The weeks climb and then ease in three-week blocks, and across them your endurance, your climbing and the way you put the power down are trained in balance.

Held to from the first week, it will have you ready for your hot race on the day it counts.

Common questions

Who is this plan for?

The rider or athlete targeting your hot race. It suits a block of base and strength work, for someone who can give it a fairly steady 6 hours most weeks.

How much training does it involve?

Plan on 5 weeks and about 6 hours a week. It rises for a couple of weeks, then drops to let the work settle, rather than climbing endlessly until you break.

How is the plan delivered?

A single payment drops the whole plan into TrainingPeaks for you, laid out session by session in plain English so nothing is left to guesswork.
