October training plan is simple

Gym weight session adaption phase low weights high reps twice a week

No bike training go for a ride but notch it back a couple this is recovery for what's about to come

Cross train swim jog any cardo but just tick over no stress

Except for the tests in the last week I have a nice ramp test for you it will hurt a bit

George

We sit down and discuss that bit the weights are a necessity for strength building which we should start the off bike bit early winter and finish when we spend more time on the bike

The first few blocks are really getting your body ready for the training load that's coming and will focus on endurance and strength November December

October is recovery time ride your bike but not hard

Back to peak you will not hold peak all year so you have to look at what races are the main ones use the others as form and fitness markers

October is a rest phase and focus on recovery ride your bike if you want but take it a bit easier.

If anything broken or not working right make apointment with Doc, or who and what ever you trust.

Also October is a good time to cross train,

Note adaption phase of weights should start in October 2 visits per week focusing on form, other activity is testing to measure performance inprovements.

We need your base line to measure the training improvements, this test will be a ramp test utilising heart rate and or power.

So you will need either a turbo that measures power or HR.

Rules for test same bike each time, same turbo, same pressure in tyre

Rest 24 hours before test, eat and drink the same on all tests

Days i will be available for tests are 3,8,10,15,24 pick a date club rooms
