Plan Description

There's always room for improvement. If you spend a lot of time on the bike and have already raced some MTB Stage Races, but want to up your game and turn some heads, I can help you.


If you've already raced some stage races but want to take it to the next level, with bigger events and/or better performances, this plan is for you. Regardless of whether you’re using a power meter, a heart rate monitor or are just working off of perceived exertion, this plan will get you fitter and faster. Combine that with world class coaching and you're on your way! For you, having TrainingPeaks Premium (included with this plan) will be a game changer. Don't forget to include your email upon purchase so I can connect with you and sign you up for TP Premium (a $20/month value on me).
