• Waite Endurance v4.0 Training Plans, Available from Training Peaks






Written by Cody Waite, of Waite Endurance

This is part of our most recently updated v3.1 plan series (2019) with all Structured Workouts provided to be used with Smart Trainers and devices of your choosing!

The Race Prep plan picks up where our BASE BUILDER PLANS leave off, and prepares you to race! Your Anaerobic Power, Vo2 Max, and Anaerobic Threshold energy systems are all addressed as your racing approaches.



RACE PREP PLAN DESCRIPTION:

Our 12-week Ultra Marathon MTB Race-Prep Plan, v3.1, is designed for Ultra Marathon distance racers (60-100+) miles) looking to sharpen up their race day fitness leading up to their A-priority event. This plan is designed to begin after you've completed one of our Base Builder Plans and have your fitness base established. You can also begin this plan without having followed our Base Builder Plans, assuming you have at least 8 weeks building a solid aerobic strength base prior to starting this program.

This 12 week plan is set up in 6 two-week blocks: each block focusing on a specific energy system beginning with Anaerobic Power and gradually expanding through Vo2 Max, Anaerobic Threshold, Aerobic Threshold, Aerobic Endurance, and a final a Peak/Taper into your goal event. Each two-week block includes 4 Structured Workouts that focus on the specific energy system, and two endurance rides. Strength training sessions continue from our Base Builder plans in the form of Maintenance sessions that are optional depending on your strength training preferences.

Also included in the plan is our Aerobic Threshold & Anaerobic Power Testing protocol (and calculator spreadsheet) to identify your training zones for the Structured Workouts. You will test once beginning the plan and again near the end of the plan to validate your improvements.

REUSABLE: You can easily reuse this plan within your racing season as you recover and rebuild between peaks for A-priority events; as well as future seasons.
