Strength for Endurance Athletes Training Plan
About this plan
The whole plan points at one thing: your strength base. Across 8 weeks and roughly 4 hours a week, it builds you toward a block of base and strength work with nothing in there that does not earn its place.
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.
Do the work and you get to your strength base fit, confident and knowing your day is in hand.
