This is part 3 of our 4-part mini-series of episodes that unpack and dive deep into the specifics of our newly released v4.0 Downloadable Training Plans. Our new for 2023 training plan progressions run through our three training blocks: Base Prep, Base Builder and Race Prep that culminate in a peak performance at your next A-event.
In this part 3 episode, we dig into our second training block: Base Builder
Our highly successful Base Builder progression returns in our most advanced progression to date. Endurance cyclists can build their base fitness for their next A-event across 14-weeks of highly structured training. We progress through all the critical glycolytic energy-systems in two week micro-blocks:
- Aerobic Threshold
- Low Anaerobic Threshold
- High Anaerobic Threshold
- Vo2 Max
- Anaerobic Power
- Peak Power
Included in the weekly programming is twice weekly gym sessions, aerobic sessions and a progressively building endurance ride. This progression allows for a gradual increase in weekly training loads leading to increasing CTL (fitness) before transitioning to your event specific Race Prep block.
In the 4th and final part of this series, we look at each of our four Race Prep plans that correspond to the specific demands of your A-event duration leading you to your peak performance.
Lastly, for our valued podcast listeners, we provide a 25% discount code to be used on top of the already discounted pre-season pricing on all our v4.0 Downloadable Training Plans available through the Training Peaks Plan Store.
