Training plans
The secret to achieving your cycling goals lies in determination and preparation. There are no shortcuts, but by giving yourself the necessary means, you can achieve your goals.
That's why, in collaboration with the FFC (French Cycling Federation), we're offering you a detailed training plan for the last 3 months before L'Étape du Tour de France. These 12 weeks will give you the peace of mind you need to be in top form on D-day.
Your preparation will be divided into 3 blocks of 4 weeks with each block focusing on a specific aspect: velocity, strength and power. We believe in the equation power = strength x velocity.

- "Finisher goal": dedicated to insiders and those who don't have much time, with 3 outings a week.
- "Chrono goal": 5 outings a week for those who want to push their limits.
