Off-Season Indoor Cycling Programs

Begin the new year feeling that you have brought your cycling to a new level!

This popular indoor Zwift-based program is perfect for cyclists of all levels looking to build a robust endurance foundation before commencing race-specific training in the new year, and for triathletes who want to focus on their cycling before transitioning to multi-sport training in the new year.

Increase your Functional Threshold Power, improve cycling mechanics, and develop endurance. Gain an understanding of your specific strengths and limiters and track your progress through regular testing protocols.

Choose from one of two options:

• Option 1: 10 week program – Ideal for cyclists or triathletes who want to build a foundation of strength and endurance on the bicycle, prior to starting race-specific training in January. (January is an excellent starting point to prepare for early-season races).

• Option 2: 20 week extended program – For athletes considering participating in the Strong Like Bull Training Camp in Spain and/or preparing for long distance events, or simply just extend your indoor training season with some more challenging cycling.

Group workouts (3 per week) are interactive, no-drop rides, with feedback & discussion of training concepts and goals from a professional cycling coach. Solo workouts are also prescribed each week. Athletes will be guided through specific progression of bike workouts and individual testing. The program culminates with a virtual race/group ride event as a way to test new skills and abilities.

Requirements: Athletes will require a Zwift subscription, Power Meter and/or Smart Trainer, or Standard Trainer with speed/cadence sensors to enroll in this program. Should you have questions regarding your technology, please contact Coach Peter prior to enrolling in the program.
