This 6-week cross-country interval training plan begins by working on your race start and quickly moves into Zone 6 Anaerobic interval workouts. Because XC Mountain Biking is all about short (20 second - 1 minute) anaerobic power output!
There are endurance mountain bike hammer rides on the weekend for endurance training and technical skills practice. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursdays are for 1 minuters, VO2’s, threshold and the diabolical Tabatas.
