To begin your sweet spot base training you'll perform a Field Test to set your training zones, especially the all important sweet spot training zone!  A second test half thru your plan will measure your improvement and update your training zones and a third a final test will do the same. Athletes can expect to increase their FTP by 5 – 20%! 

 In the final mesocycle of this plan you'll be doing long sweet spot TSS rides on Saturdays and short structured 'wintertime intensity' during the work week.   Weeks 13, 14, & 15 have the 3 > 4 > 5 minute VO2 Max Interval Progression to push your threshold even higher 🚀💪

• 3 Main Meals each Day + Snacks
• Each meal can be made in 10 min or less

If you are an endurance athlete who has tried to lose weight in the past, you know it can be tricky. Cut back too far on how much you are eating, and your ability to execute workouts diminishes, resulting in poor training adaptations. Yet, eating too much can also yield decreased performance. Finding that perfect balance between diet and training to reach their weight loss goals can seem overwhelming for many athletes. That is exactly why our Registered Dietitian, Lacey Rivette, has developed these plans! She takes the guesswork out for you!

The plan includes 3 Main Meals each Day + Snacks: 15 recipes total (including optional ones) that you can make in 10 minutes or less.** This plan shows you how to ‘Win In The Kitchen‘

**Note: Meal Prep at the beginning of each week is required to ensure every meal can be made in 10 minutes or less. Time to meal prep varies based on your cooking skills, but typically takes no more than an hour.

• 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.
