Structured training is the best way to make sure you’re not missing any bases. Your training should include a 2 to 3-month, zone 2 base training phase (easy riding to build muscle and burn fat), low torque (very low cadence) longer intervals (10 – 20 mins) for muscle strength, and high pace interval blowouts for speed and sprinting work. If you’re unsure how to structure your training, get in touch and we’ll guide you.
