This is a 10-week cyclocross plan designed to prepare advanced-level masters (40+) road or mountain bike racers for the demands of CX races. The plan includes many high-intensity, on-bike workouts. Start this plan 10 weeks before your goal race or season kick-off. Each week includes 6-14 hours of workouts, with rest weeks scheduled in. For best results, complete an 8- to 12-week base of training before starting this plan if you haven't raced and trained throughout the summer. If you're coming off a road or MTB race season, take 1 or 2 weeks of rest/transition before starting this plan. As an advanced-level plan, this plan features both block training formats late in the plan and some two-a-day workouts. The plan is intensive and designed to push you to a peak.
This plan uses TrainingPeaks WKO and the Power Duration Curve. Your workout prescription will be individualized based on your data following the PD Curve as you gain fitness. iLevel plans are for the serious, competitive, power-training cyclist. You will need to have a power meter and the TrainingPeaks WKO software.
When performing workouts at higher intensities, we recommend that you refer to the Optimized Intervals report within WKO to find the exact intensity you should do the workout out. The Optimized Intervals report displays the optimal interval intensity for you as an individual, based on your actual training history and abilities.
Many of these new workouts are discussed in Coach Cusick’s FREE WKO webinars. Check them out!

- Instruction booklet (attached to the first day of the plan)
