Plan Description

Fitness boost for all MTB Riders who are targeting XCO, Marathon or other off-road cycling events.

The plan provides a perfect preparation of 8 weeks leading into your season.
We wanted the program to fit into your everyday life as easy as possible so on Monday - Friday no workout is longer than 90min and can either be ridden outside or done on the turbo.

The plan can easily be adjusted to your individual needs. We have include recommendations, variations and optional sessions in the plan.
We also shedule some off-the-bike sessions. If it helps your performance, injury prevention or you just enjoy it, you can add even more. But keep in mind that the bike sessions are quite demanding and to really benefit from them you have to be fresh and recover afterwards!

This program is the right one for you, if you already have some experience in cycling. Ideally you've done a base training phase in the last weeks and are ready to handle some intensity.
If not, it is not a problem! But we would suggest to reduce the number of interval sessions and replace one of them per week with a low stress endurance session.
