Plan Description
Indoor Trainer Base Plan
Written by Tim Cusick, TrainingPeaks WKO Product Leader and master coach with BaseCamp
Plan overview
Train with the coach of national and world ITT champion Amber Neben! This 12-week trainer base plan uses Classic Training Levels and is designed for the serious competitive cyclist who has 5-8 hours a week to train. The workouts are designed to give you a great foundation, with lots of tempo and sub-threshold work. Includes power, heart rate, and perceived exertion.
The workouts can be used in the traditional format or as structured workouts, which load automatically to select devices (Garmin, Zwift, RGT, TrainerRoad, Racermate, and more) so you can see your workout and interval numbers right on your device.
Included with your plan:
- User guide
- Testing protocol
- Coaching comments and tips
- Free strength training routine from Menachem Brodie
