Structured Cycling Training Plans That Get You Faster
A structured cycling training plan replaces guesswork and unstructured "junk miles" with a day-by-day schedule of purposeful workouts. Each plan progresses through the right phases of training — base, build, and peak — so your fitness arrives on time for your priority events. FasCat has built 70+ coach-designed plans over 20+ years, all power-based and grounded in the Sweet Spot training method our founder Frank Overton pioneered.
Because they're periodized and time-efficient, FasCat plans are built to deliver real fitness gains on the hours you actually have — often just 4–8 focused hours a week. Every plan is included with the CoachCat app, which assembles them into one custom plan tailored to your goals and schedule.
📘 New to structured training? Read our guide to choosing the best cycling training plan →Plans for every rider and every discipline
Start with Sweet Spot base building in the off-season, then move into a discipline-specific plan as your event nears: gravel, cyclocross, criterium and road racing, marathon MTB, or century and gran fondo. New to power-based training? Our training glossary explains the key terms.
What makes FasCat's structured plans different
- Power-based and specific — every interval targets a defined zone anchored to your FTP.
- Time-efficient — Sweet Spot intensity builds the most fitness for the least fatigue.
- Properly periodized — the right training at the right time, all season long.
- Coach-built — designed by FasCat's professional coaches, not generated from a formula.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a structured cycling training plan?
It's a day-by-day schedule of specific workouts — built around your fitness, goals, and available time — that progresses through base, build, and peak phases so your fitness peaks for your priority events. Each workout targets a defined power or intensity zone rather than unstructured riding.
Which FasCat training plan is best for me?
It depends on your event and the time of year. Begin with Sweet Spot base building in the off-season and early season, then move to a discipline-specific plan — gravel, cyclocross, criterium, road, or marathon MTB — as your event approaches. The CoachCat app assembles these into one custom, periodized plan automatically.
Are FasCat's training plans power-based?
Yes. Plans prescribe workouts by power (with heart rate as a backup), anchored to your FTP, so every interval hits the right intensity. They're built around the Sweet Spot zone FasCat pioneered for time-efficient fitness gains.
How much time do I need to train each week?
FasCat's Sweet Spot approach is designed to be time-efficient — many plans deliver results on 4–8 focused hours per week. The CoachCat app tailors the plan to the hours you actually have available.
Do I need a coach, or is a training plan enough?
A structured plan is enough for most self-motivated riders and is the most affordable way to train with FasCat's methodology. If you want personalized adjustments and accountability, FasCat also offers 1:1 coaching — and all coaching levels include the plans.
