Weekly Mountain Bike Race Series Training Plan - Weekly World Champ
Weekly Mountain Bike Race Series Training Plan - Weekly World Champ
Length
18 Weeks
Plan Description
This is our 'Weekly World Champ' training plan - it is meant for novice/intermediates who want to focus on weekly races rather than on a big weekend event. These series generally happen May-August but could also be spring or cyclocross (fall) series.
Many of our clients have used workouts just like the ones in this plan to dominate their local series and beat their buddies each week!
If your main focus is not weekly race series domination and/or you have big weekend race goals we have other plans that are for 100 milers or marathons or xco
(See all of our plans here )
Is This Plan For You?
It is designed for busy people who have 5-8 hours of training most weeks with some flexibility to do more on the weekend.
This plan is 4 months long and is best started 2 months BEFORE your weekly race series starts so you can build your fitness and skills up before the series starts and then train effectively around your weekly races. Feel free to copy/modify hte plan to get through your full weekly race series -OR- reach out for a phone consultation or 3-month Made for You Plan to extend your training through your season.
The Consummate Athlete philosophy involves being healthy and prepared, as well as developing specific fitness for the event. In line with this the plan provides reminders and suggestions to prepare for stage racing (gear, nutrition, travel etc.) AND encourages you to strength train and walk in addition to your bike training.
What Does It Include?
Guidance on adjusting workouts and what is important for different phases of the year.
Structured Workout Downloads are included for most bike workouts ( for Garmin / Zwift Etc ). If you are going to train indoors for some workouts or would like to put workouts on your bike computer. *some workouts will not have a download to keep thing simple and provide freedom from focus and devices! (e.g. ride endurance for 3 hours).
-
A basic core routine is provided and encouraged throughout the plan.
You can use this plan by HR, Power or RPE. It is ideal to use all 3 but you can use any of the 3 and still have great success.
