Plan Description
About This Plan
This in-season plan is filled with lots of powerful workouts and coaching advice. This plan is designed to build on top of a solid base foundation (you should have good fitness with a CTL over 60) to prepare you in 8 weeks to crush your ultra road event. It is a tough, high-volume plan and will push you hard to make sure you're ready! You'll do low-cadence work for climbing, micro intervals for simulating the demands of racing, and fatigue resistance workouts to practice a strong finish.
- Typical week: Monday off; Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday workouts; Friday rest/easy; Saturday and Sunday high volume days
- Progressive schedule with rest week every fourth week
- Testing included to assure accurate training
- Workouts accommodate power, heart rate, and perceived exertion
- Structured workouts can be automatically exported to Garmin, your trainer, or other device for on-screen guidance as you train

Athlete Testimonial
First and foremost the plans work! My fitness has come on leaps and bounds, so thank you very much! I’ve been coached in the past but working through the Base Building Plus and then on to the 12 Weeks to peak tt I have increased FTP, improved muscular endurance and destroyed my mates on a group ride recently! I used to feel quite pressured being coached, following these plans I’ve been chilled out, consistent and have enjoyed the journey they have taken me on. I will continue know to train with Tim’s plans! (Andy D.)
