MTB Training plans

[ex road user]

Hi

 

Is there any one that could assist in getting a good MTB training programe or a coach that one could work with on a training programe and not costing you a arm and a leg?

 

Thanks

I'm very happy with a plan Pierre Nel from Active Lifestyle Coaching developed for me. He is on the forum else search on FB for Xcosa.co.za ( the name of the club)

Still have them. Have mailed to a couple of guys who sent me their addresses.

Will mail the rest in the morning. Anyone know where one could place these excel files for people to download? A dropbox of sorts.

Bit of a thread necro here:

V12 - do you (or anyone else) have the multisport version of this?

Had it a few years back, but I've lost it.

I have this one - will that help? - if not I suggest a call to Peter Figg from Polar in SA  - I am sure he will be able to help you on where to find it.

Thanks, but I was looking for the one that had swimming and running as well.

Will try Peter.

Thanks!

Don't think I have ever seen that one - I am not a fan of HR based training for cycling - power based works a lot better - and I no longer dare to look at the HR it leads to...

Agreed, I use power for cycling. But for run and swim, it's the next best thing.
