About this plan

This plan is built for L'Eroica, start to finish. It is shaped around a long, hard day on the bike, running 17 weeks at a solid 11 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.

Follow it as written and you will arrive at L'Eroica genuinely ready, not just hopeful.

Common questions

Who is this plan for?

Anyone with L'Eroica on the calendar. It is written for a long, hard day on the bike, and it assumes you can train consistently at around 11 hours a week.

How much training does it involve?

Plan on 17 weeks and about 11 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?

It is a one-off purchase delivered straight into your TrainingPeaks account, written out session by session in plain language so you always know what to do and why.
