A century, or 100 mile ride, is a big goal for many cyclists. Add some big climbs and frequent rollers and the challenge is on!
The most important thing to completing a century is determination. If you want to do it and think you can, you will. It may be painful, but you'll finish. If you don't think you can do it you'll find some excuse to drop out: a cramp in your calf, rain, whatever. Use this training plan to prepare your body and your mind for the effort!
To get your body ready for a century, you need to ride. This may seem obvious, but that's really all you have to do. Once you've gotten to the point where you can do 70 mile rides without knocking yourself out, you're ready for the century. Of course, you have to do your training in terrain that's at least as difficult as where you'll be doing your century. If you find you can ride a flat 70 miles easily and then try to do a century in the mountains, you may find is a very unpleasant experience.
The 10 week plan is designed for the beginner-to-intermediate cyclist with 6 to 12 hours a week to train, who has been riding for less than a year, or who rides, on average, a few times a week up to 3 hours. You have completed a few club rides and are starting to get comfortable riding in a pack. Don't worry if you have a little less time than that to train, you'll be able to adjust easily with my guidance tips at the beginning of each week. Along with improving your overall fitness, the focus of the first three weeks is to jumpstart your muscular endurance to prepare for the demands of the metric. The fourth week is a rest week and is critical to prepare your body for the next block of training. Weeks 5, 6, and 7 are designed to solidify your newfound fitness and build your ability to "survive" on the climbs while completing your first metric! Make sure your following each days training, don't give up. This plan is hard but will make you faster! To complete this plan you should have 4-6 weeks of "base" training totalling at least 500 miles of riding to ensure you are ready to complete this plan. The plan consists of workouts at various effort levels. It offers wattage, heart rate, and rate of perceived exertion (RPE) options so you can gauge yours effort whether you use a power meter, an HR monitor, or prefer to work out by feel.
Before you start the plan, I suggest you take a quick look at the attached document “Effort Guidelines,” which describes the different training zones. (To download it, click the paper clip in the upper right corner.) Whichever zones you use, these guidelines will help you easily and quickly understand how hard you should be working during a given session. Also attached here are “Workout Guidelines” to help you grasp key training terms.
If you plan on PRINTING this plan, make sure you print it with HIDE "Exercises and Intervals" checked. That way you will just read the description of the workouts. I have attached a screenshot to help you under the paper clip in the upper right hand corner of this box. There is only 1 workout per day, so don't let the 'structured' exercises and intervals confuse you if you see them. As part of this plan I recommend stretching and light yoga as a recovery tool and I would recommend purchasing my cycling specific yoga video from: www.peakscoachinggroup.com/store
I know you are going to really do awesome!!!

This 12 week Bicycling Training plan is made for any racer ready to take on a Roubaix race. This plan is comprehensive and is built on hundreds of hours of power analysis, race comparisons, data capture and past successes of the athletes I have coached. I have built this plan with power AND heart rate in mind and perceived exertion, so even if you don't have a power meter, you can use your HRM to do the workouts or just use your perceived exertion.
A Roubaix race is most likely one of the most unique races on a racing calendar in terms of its demands. You are going to have to be ready for Vo2 efforts on the gravel, big gear work, hard accelerations, and of course you'll need the threshold power and muscular endurance to get you to the finish line in the front group. I have built this plan taking all of these unique demands into account and it will prepare you thoroughly well for a top performance at your race. This is not a plan for the mediocre or pack filler. If you want to take it to the next level and ready to put in the work, then this is your plan. Be ready for some unique workouts, be ready for some hard workouts and be ready to do the workouts.
You'll need between 8 and 12 hours a week to play with in order to get all of the work done in this plan. I have built this with power AND heart rate in mind, so even if you don't have a power meter, you can use your HRM to do the workouts.
Get this plan now and I know you'll enjoy the guidance, workouts and plan as it will bring more focus to your workouts and also let you in on the secrets to succeeding at a Roubaix race!

A double century, or 200 mile ride, is a big goal for many cyclists. Add some big climbs and frequent rollers and the challenge is on!
The most important thing to completing a double century is determination. If you want to do it and think you can, you will. It may be painful, but you'll finish. If you don't think you can do it you'll find some excuse to drop out: a cramp in your calf, rain, whatever. Use this training plan to prepare your body and your mind for the effort!
The 12 week plan is designed for the beginner cyclist with 15-20 hours a week to train.
Before you start the plan, I suggest you take a quick look at the attached document “Effort Guidelines,” which describes the different training zones.

This plan is made to improve your Vo2 Max and get you to the next level of fitness. If you are at a 'plateau' in your fitness, then this is the plan for you to bust that glass ceiling and to the next highest threshold. If you have trouble when the s%*$ hits the fan and for that 5 minutes when you are in the gutter and suffering barely hanging on for dear life, then this is the plan for you too. It's a Vo2 Max intensive for a reason, so prepare yourself for the intensity on a regular basis. I have blended it with solid amounts of FTP work at the same time, so that you'll continue to improve there too. Stuck in a rut? Get this plan.
It's built using the latest in power training principles and these are the workouts that I prescribe to my personal athletes. Built on percentages, so that no matter what your threshold power is, you'll be able to use this plan. You'll need to know what your threshold power is of course before you begin, but once you have that number, you'll be able to use the percentages in each workout. Weeks 4 and 8 are rest weeks, but you'll still get in about 5-6 hours of working out(just very easily!) You'll need to have between 12-18 hours a week to train in order to do this plan. Go for it! I know you'll love it!

This plan is for the cyclist getting prepared to go on a weeklong bicycle trip. A week long ride with all your gear or a supported ride is not something to be taken lightly. This plan will improve your fitness, so you can ride those long hours in the saddle, withstand those big hills, climb the long mountain passes and recover quicker for the next day's adventure.
This 12 week training plan has you riding between 6-12 hours a week, doing specific drills, workouts and rides to prepare you physically and mentally. I, Hunter Allen, am your coach along the way and I have coached many riders to prepare for week long trips, month long trips and even year long trips!
If you are a beginner, intermediate or expert cyclist, you will want to do this plan to make sure your preparation is spot on for your bike adventure.
Along with improving your overall fitness, the focus of the first three weeks is to really build up your aerobic capacity and get you ready to ride those long rides. The forth week is a rest week and it is critical for your body to prepare for the next block of training. Weeks 5, 6, and 7 are designed to keep you improving your aerobic capacity but also will push you a little further with tempo work, along with anaerobic capacity work as well as neuromuscular power work to prepare you for the hard efforts you will face during your weeklong trip. Push through all of those efforts and don’t give up! Week 8 will be another critical rest week, make sure you relax and take it easy! Your body has been through a lot and needs proper time to recover. In week nine you will see some tempo and bursts throughout the rides -keep going! Weeks 10 and 11 are easy weeks, in preparation for the big week. You’ll want to be pretty rested heading into your week. Week twelve will be your final week of prep. It will cause you to revisit your anaerobic capacity early on and then the rest of the week will be easier and in the endurance zone. You will be completely prepared for the weeklong trip ahead.
The plan consists of workouts at various effort levels. It offers wattage, heart rate, and rate of perceived exertion (RPE) options so you can gauge yours effort whether you use a power meter, an HR monitor, or prefer to work out by feel.
Before you start the plan, I suggest you take a quick look at the attached document “Effort Guidelines,” which describes the different training zones.

A criterium, or crit, is a bike race held on a short course often held on blocked-off city streets. The course is short, usually less than 5 km, and is a closed circuit, where riders complete multiple laps. Riders typically race for a given length of time, then complete a specified number of laps. An example would be a race of 60 minutes plus three laps.
In addition to the typical method of determining a winner -- first rider across the finish line -- many crits have prizes that can be won while the race is in progress. Called primes (pronounced "preems"), these are given for winning specific laps along the way and are frequently cash prizes or merchandise.
Criteriums are especially nice for watching in-person as the riders pass by a given point many times over the course of a race.
This Bicycling magazine, Hunter Allen Criterium Race training plan will help you get ready! Let me introduce myself, Hunter Allen, your coach! I have raced in hundreds of criterium races (and won a few too!) as an amateur and a pro, and coached even more athletes to successful criterium races.

The road race is a mass start, one day event. It usually consists of a 5-25 mile repeating loops, starting and finishing in the same point. The courses may be long or short, flat or hilly, or a combination. The athlete with the greatest overall ability to sprint, climb, and just persevere, will tend to have the most success so your training plan needs to support this.

One rider against the clock, the race of truth, contre la montre (against the clock)—whatever you call them, time trials are the races that define the best of the best in cycling. Riders start off one at a time and compete against the clock to post the fastest time on courses ranging from a few kilometers to over 60km in length. There is no drafting is allowed, so riders times are defined by their ability, pacing and mental strength.The truth in this race of truth is that winning requires the ability to stay focused despite all the pain in your body, the variations of the course, or concerns over your competitors. You must learn to ignore the voice that tells you to slow down, stop, you can’t do this and keep pedaling as fluidly, quickly, and powerfully as possible.

This plan is built to push you during your 3 day blocks of training, then give you a solid rest in between so you are ready for the next 3 day block. This is the way best in the world train. The toughest part about this is that you have to make sure you honor the training on the last day in each block. That is the hardest day anyhow and will give you the most bang for your training buck. Since it's a block training plan, it also means that sometimes you'll be resting on the weekends. Take that time to catch up around the house and rest up for the next block. Remember: this is the way champions train. It won't be easy. During these 8 weeks you are going to work hard during the block but then rest hard as well. This plan isn't for everyone and if you are strictly constrained to the a 7 day work week, this plan probably isn't for you. If you can train whenever you want to and are able to push yourself even when you are tired, and want to maximize the training stress, then this is your plan. Prepare to win.

A metric century is a 100 kilometer cycling event that is done for fun and challenge. 100km events are just about the perfect distance to start as a great cycling challenge. A hilly event will make you push hard over the hills, allow you to enjoy the downhills and inspire you to ride faster at your next one!
This Bicycling magazine, Hunter Allen Hilly Metric Century training plan will help you get ready to survive it! Let me introduce myself, Hunter Allen, your coach! I have raced in hundreds of races (and won a few too!) as an amateur and a pro, and coached even more athletes to successful races, metric century's, gran fondos and long distance events.
The plan is designed for the beginner-to-intermediate cyclist with 6 to 12 hours a week to train, who has been riding for less than a year, or who rides, on average, a few times a week up to 3 hours. You have completed a few club rides and are starting to get comfortable riding in a pack. Don't worry if you have a little less time than that to train, you'll be able to adjust easily with my guidance tips at the beginning of each week. Along with improving your overall fitness, the focus of the first three weeks is to jumpstart your muscular endurance to prepare for the demands of the metric. The fourth week is a rest week and is critical to prepare your body for the next block of training. Weeks 5, 6, and 7 are designed to solidify your newfound fitness and build your ability to "survive" on the climbs while completing your first metric!
Make sure your following each days training, don't give up. This plan is hard but will make you faster! To complete this plan you should have 4-6 weeks of "base" training totalling at least 500 miles of riding to ensure you are ready to complete this plan. The plan consists of workouts at various effort levels. It offers wattage, heart rate, and rate of perceived exertion (RPE) options so you can gauge yours effort whether you use a power meter, an HR monitor, or prefer to work out by feel.
Before you start the plan, I suggest you take a quick look at the attached document “Effort Guidelines,” which describes the different training zones. (To download it, click the paper clip in the upper right corner.) Whichever zones you use, these guidelines will help you easily and quickly understand how hard you should be working during a given session. Also attached here are “Workout Guidelines” to help you grasp key training terms.
If you plan on PRINTING this plan, make sure you print it with HIDE "Exercises and Intervals" checked. That way you will just read the description of the workouts. I have attached a screenshot to help you under the paper clip in the upper right hand corner of this box. There is only 1 workout per day, so don't let the 'structured' exercises and intervals confuse you if you see them. As part of this plan I recommend stretching and light yoga as a recovery tool and I would recommend purchasing my cycling specific yoga video from:

This 12 week wattage based training plan is for the athlete that really wants to goto the next level in their threshold power. If you have been stalled at your current threshold power or if you haven't seen much improvement this year, or if you are just ready to take your threshold to the next level, then this is the plan for you. It's based on all the experience and knowledge of power training that I give to my personal clients. It is not easy. The next level never is. IF you want it, if you REALLY want to improve your FTP and goto the next level in your cycling, then this is your plan.
All the workouts are based on wattages and are percentage based on your functional threshold power, so make sure your know your FTP before you start. You will need between 12-17 hours a week of training time to complete this plan, so if you can commit to that you should be fine.
Be sure to read my "THE NEXT LEVEL" article in the first days' workout attachment if you haven't already.
Push yourself harder than before and learn more about your body and how it responds to the training.

If you chose the 340watts threshold improvement plan in the first 8 weeks, be sure to re-test your threshold, because now it is probably higher and this 340w plan will not be at the correct intensity for you. This plan is for a cyclist or triathlete that has a power meter and a threshold wattage of about 340 watts. The athlete can train from 9 to 13 hours a week, with a couple of weeks at 15+ hours(mainly from long rides on weekends) and has been cycling for at least a year, and is excited about going faster or getting into racing and/or improving their racing category. You can put in between 2-5 hours on one of your weekend days. Your goal is to increase your threshold wattage and also increase your endurance in the 8 week period. Before beginning you should be able to complete a 50 mile ride and you would like to be able to compete a 80 mile ride in the near future. You are currently riding your bike from 4-7x per week, but lack direction, and exactly how to best use your power meter. You would like to use your power meter to base your training on and also get a real focus to help you make it to the next level. To get the most out of this plan, it's important that you go through the testing protocols first, in order to make sure of your threshold wattage. Please read the accompanying documents in order to review the testing protocols.

This is a year long training plan for the beginning Mt. Bike rider. This plan gives you 2-3 workouts per week and that allows you to choose based on your lifestyle. The workouts get harder throughout the year in order to take advantage of your improvements as you go! Skills drills, weight training and focused structure will give you more fitness than before. Loosely based on training zones, you use your 'feeling' for each workout. The 'feeling' of intensity is what we call RPE or rate of perceived exertion and is closely related to the amount of power you are producing. You can use your heart rate monitor or power meter as well, but if you don't have one of those, not to worry. Go for it and I know you'll really love this plan!

This plan is for the person that would like a year long plan to follow. It's for the beginning rider and references different training zones, so you can use a heart rate monitor, power meter or just go on your 'feeling'(RPE-rate of perceived exertion). This plan has you riding 3-4 days a week and progressively builds you, so that your weekends get a little longer and the workouts get a little harder throughout the year. Don't worry, you will improve as well, so you will be ready for them when you get to them. This is a great way to give yourself structure and keep you focused throughout the year. Many times there are multiple workouts for each day, and you have some choices, so don't look at the hours per week and think that you have to do all of them. Go for it and I know you'll really improve!
These plans were designed to specifically work with your Computrainer!
Each day you have a workout, you will also receive a .ERG file, in which you will load into your Computrainer and then your Computrainer will do all adjustments of the wattage load to create the perfect workout! You will need to use the Computrainer Coaching Software (Computrainer CS) in order to upload the .ERG file. Detailed descriptions are included to show you each step on how to upload an .ERG file and then do the workout.
This plan is a comprehensive 12 week Spring training plan for the cyclist, triathlete or Mt. Biker that uses a Computrainer and has a Threshold of 150watts. You can train from 10-15 hours a week and have been riding at least a year. This plan can be started anytime during the spring. I have placed options on the weekends, so that if you are racing on the weekends, then I have planned for you to be fresh and strong. If you are not racing, then you have the option of a hard training weekend.
Most cycling workouts are designed to be done on the Computrainer, but include the full description of the workout, so they could easily be adaptable to outside if you live in a warm climate during the spring. There is a SPRINT workout that you will have to do outside, as it’s impossible to get in a high quality sprint workout on an indoor trainer.
The weekends are made to be ridden outside as well, however, there are a few key workouts made with .ERG files on the weekend.
Your plan starts out by getting right to work with Lactate Threshold and Vo2 max work. You’ll start doing sprints the following week and working on your anaerobic capacity.
Each cycling workout has a specific focus to it, so don't worry about having to 'drone' along on the trainer for hours at a time. These indoor workouts are specific, challenging and will make the time go by quickly. Farther into the plan, you’ll be doing more specific race prep intervals to maintain your sharp fitness ‘edge’.
This specific Computrainer winter plan is an incredible value at $99.95, and includes hours and hours of specific work designed to make your spring 2006 season your best! If you want to take it to the next level this spring 2006 season and you have a Computrainer, than this is the plan for you!

This is the exclusive training plan of "The Tour of the Battenkill" by Hunter Allen and Peaks Coaching Group. This 12 week plan is made for any racer in the Category 2, 1 and even Pro categories planning on racing in TOB. This plan is comprehensive and is built on hundreds of hours of power analysis, race comparisons, data capture and past successes of the athletes I have coached. I have built this plan with power AND heart rate in mind and perceived exertion, so even if you don't have a power meter, you can use your HRM to do the workouts or just use your perceived exertion.
The Tour of the Battenkill is most likely one of the most unique races in the USAC racing calendar in terms of its demands. You are going to have to be ready for VO2 efforts on the gravel, big gear work, hard accelerations, and of course you'll need the threshold power and muscular endurance to get you to the finish line in the front group. I have built this plan taking all of these unique demands into account and it will prepare you thoroughly well for a top performance at TOB. This is not a plan for the mediocre or pack filler. If you want to take it to the next level and ready to put in the work, then this is your plan. Be ready for some unique workouts, be ready for some hard workouts and be ready to do the workouts.
You'll need between 13 and 20 hours a week to play with in order to get all of the work done in this plan. I have built this with power AND heart rate in mind, so even if you don't have a power meter, you can use your HRM to do the workouts.
Get this plan now and I know you'll enjoy the guidance, workouts and plan as it will bring more focus to your workouts and also let you in on the secrets to succeeding at TOB!

These plans were designed to specifically work with your Computrainer!
Each day you have a workout, you will also receive a .ERG file, in which you will load into your Computrainer and then your Computrainer will do all adjustments of the wattage load to create the perfect workout! You will need to use the Computrainer Coaching Software (Computrainer CS) in order to upload the .ERG file. Detailed descriptions are included to show you each step on how to upload an .ERG file and then do the workout.
This plan is a comprehensive 12 week winter training plan for the cyclist, triathlete or Mt. Biker that uses a Computrainer and has a Threshold of 150watts. Weight plans are included as well, along with suggestions for cross-training, on your ‘off’ days. You can train from 10-15 hours a week and have been riding at least a year(this could be your first off-season). This plan can be started anytime during the winter.
Bonus .erg files are included as well! There is a week and a half of additional .erg files attached with this plan at the very end of the plan! BONUS!
This winter plan includes a resistance training plan designed specificially for you- the endurance athlete. The resistance training plan is comprehensive, explaining all exercises, sets, reps and goes for the entire 12 weeks. This is attached to your training plan with a printable spreadsheet that you can take with you to the gym to assist you in tracking your progress. I have also included cross-training workouts to do at the gym in order to continue your aerobic capacity development, while doing other complimentary exercises. All cycling workouts are designed to be done on the Computrainer, but include the full description of the workout, so they could easily be adaptable to outside if you live in a warm climate during the winter. Your plan starts out by easily transitioning you into a solid resistance training program, and also moving into some fun cross-training workouts. Of course, you will still be doing some great riding and each cycling workout has a specific focus to it, so don't worry about having to 'drone' along on the trainer for hours at a time. These indoor workouts are specific, challenging and will make the time go by quickly. Then as the winter continues, you move into building your 'power' or muscular endurance and strength. Finally the last 4 weeks of the plan have you progressing into Sub-Lactate Threshold work and prepping you for better weather and the upcoming race season! This specific Computrainer winter plan is an incredible value at $99.95, and includes hours and hours of specific work designed to make your winter 2009/2010 season your best! If you want to take it to the next level in your 2010 season and you have a Computrainer, than this is the plan for you!
**To get the most out of this plan, it's important that you go through the testing protocols first, in order to make sure of your threshold wattage. Please read the accompanying articles above in or to review the testing protocols and definitions.**

These 'BONUS' workouts are for you to plug in and use throughout the winter, if you need. The plan is complete without them, but these are just
'BONUS' workouts for you over-achievers! This winter plan includes a resistance training plan designed specificially for you- the endurance athlete. The resistance training plan is comprehensive, explaining all exercises, sets, reps and goes for the entire 12 weeks. This is attached to your training plan with a printable spreadsheet that you can take with you to the gym to assist you in tracking your progress. I have also included cross-training workouts to do at the gym in order to continue your aerobic capacity development, while doing other complimentary exercises. All cycling workouts are designed to be done indoors, but are easily adaptable to outside if you live in a warm climate during the winter. Your plan starts out by easily transitioning you into a solid resistance training program, and also moving into some fun cross-training workouts. Of course, you will still be doing some great riding and each cycling workout has a specific focus to it, so don't worry about having to 'drone' along on the trainer for hours at a time. These indoor workouts are specific, challenging and will make the time go by quickly. Then as the winter continues, you move into building your 'power' or muscular endurance and strength. Finally the last 4 weeks of the plan have you progressing into Sub-Lactate Threshold work and prepping you for better weather and the upcoming race season! This winter plan is an incredible value at $99.95, and includes hours and hours of specific work designed to make your winter 2011/2012 season your best! If you want to take it to the next level in your 2012 season, then this is the plan for you!

A metric century is a 100 kilometer cycling event that is done for fun and challenge. 100km events are just about the perfect distance to start as a great cycling challenge and you'll always remember your first one!
This Bicycling magazine, Hunter Allen Hilly Metric Century training plan will help you get ready to survive it! Let me introduce myself, Hunter Allen, your coach! I have raced in hundreds of races (and won a few too!) as an amateur and a pro, and coached even more athletes to successful races, metric century's, gran fondos and long distance events.
The plan is designed for the beginner-to-intermediate cyclist with 6 to 12 hours a week to train, who has been riding for less than a year, or who rides, on average, a few times a week up to 3 hours. You have completed a few club rides and are starting to get comfortable riding in a pack. Don't worry if you have a little less time than that to train, you'll be able to adjust easily with my guidance tips at the beginning of each week. Along with improving your overall fitness, the focus of the first three weeks is to jumpstart your muscular endurance to prepare for the demands of the metric. The fourth week is a rest week and is critical to prepare your body for the next block of training.
Weeks 5, 6, and 7 are designed to solidify your newfound fitness and build your ability to "survive" on the climbs while completing your first metric! Make sure your following each days training, don't give up. This plan is hard but will make you faster! To complete this plan you should have 4-6 weeks of "base" training totalling at least 500 miles of riding to ensure you are ready to complete this plan. The plan consists of workouts at various effort levels. It offers wattage, heart rate, and rate of perceived exertion (RPE) options so you can gauge yours effort whether you use a power meter, an HR monitor, or prefer to work out by feel.
Before you start the plan, I suggest you take a quick look at the attached document “Effort Guidelines,” which describes the different training zones. (To download it, click the paper clip in the upper right corner.) Whichever zones you use, these guidelines will help you easily and quickly understand how hard you should be working during a given session. Also attached here are “Workout Guidelines” to help you grasp key training terms.
If you plan on PRINTING this plan, make sure you print it with HIDE "Exercises and Intervals" checked. That way you will just read the description of the workouts. I have attached a screenshot to help you under the paper clip in the upper right hand corner of this box. There is only 1 workout per day, so don't let the 'structured' exercises and intervals confuse you if you see them. As part of this plan I recommend stretching and light yoga as a recovery tool and I would recommend purchasing my cycling specific yoga video from: www.peakscoachinggroup.com/store
I know you are going to really do awesome!!!
Go for it!
