• This plan will put you on the start line prepared to crush some massive climbs!
• Tempo, SS & Threshold intervals during the week + group rides and/or harder efforts on the weekend

Whether it's Strava PR's or a race with some serious vertical gain, this six week climbing training plan will put you on the start line well prepared. You'll start with a 20min Field Test to set your Functional Threshold Power and Heart Rate, then use your training zones to ride just hard enough to get faster & stronger without burning out so you can go hard again the next day! That means lots of Tempo and Sweet Spot as well as Threshold intervals during the week and group rides or other harder efforts on the weekends. 

• Features Sweet Spot, Tempo & Threshold Intervals to prepare you for the long sustained climbs!
• Group Rides & Simulation Rides on the Weekend
• Includes a Taper into the Race + Leg Openers

Tackling the Triple Bypass this year? Our six week training plan will help you get your legs & lungs in shape for this legendary ride! Choose between a basic, intermediate or advanced training plan based on the amount of time you have to train per week, your age and your ability level.

This plan is periodized so your riding time and effort will increase over time to boost your strength and endurance for those long climbs. You can perform the workouts with a powermeter, heart rate monitor, or Rate of Perceived Exertion and a bike computer with cadence.

You’ll start with a Field Test to set your power and/or heart rate training zones, then hit the ground running with workouts! You’ll perform structured Sweet Spot and Tempo intervals mid-week and solo or group rides on the weekends. There are also recommendations for riding longer/shorter for flexibility so you can stay on track when life throws you a curve ball.

Additionally, this Triple Bypass training plan includes all the “marginal gains” details to get even stronger: Recovery Techniques, Rest Days, Yoga and Foundations with instructional videos for you to follow along with at home.

If you are more than 10 weeks out from the event, consider following the Climbing Plan or our 16 weeks of Sweet Spot if you are looking for the ultimate prep!
