Frequently Asked Questions

  • Full Plan$10 / wk: training + nutrition + mental

    Base, Build or Peak Phase-Only Plan: $5 / wk: training only

  • Yes. But we have some suggestions on how to deal with this:

    1. Never stack two “key” days (VO₂, tempo, long) Stress compounds; recovery debt = stalled adaptation. If you miss Tuesday VO₂, slide it to Wed only if Thu becomes easy. Otherwise skip.

    2. Keep the hard-easy rhythm Mitochondria grow on rest days, not in the red. After any session ≥ 8 RPE or > 2 h, next day = Z1-2 or off.

    3. Missed volume ≠ add-on volume Cramming spikes injury risk >40 %. Skip, don’t stack—resume schedule where it is.

    4. Key-session minimums Long aerobic ride + long run are load pillars. Protect them first; shuffle lesser workouts around them.

    5. 48-h rule for brick swaps CNS & muscles need full glycogen top-up. Never move a brick workout to < 48 h after another key bike/run.

    6. Listen to the “3 strikes” body check HRV, resting HR, mood off ? 3 days straight = early recovery week. Drop intensity 50 %, keep easy volume for 3-4 days.

    7. Strength before easy—not before key Fatigued stabilizers ruin form at race pace. Do S&C on easy or off days; avoid within 24 h of big run/ride.

  • Strength workouts are woven into your low-intensity days, designed to build durability without compromising key aerobic or threshold sessions.

  • Absolutely. Every week features tailored fueling cues and macro targets based on workout intensity, duration, and phase.

  • Every plan includes an answer to an email from you to the coach. Upgrade tiers add weekly check-ins and video analysis.
