Gran Fondo
Gran fondo training plan
Days: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday.
For the rider heading to a gran fondo, a sportive, a long gravel event or anything between 4 and 8 hours where the goal is to finish strong, not to win a sprint.
When you buy, you unlock the week-by-week calendar with every workout.
How it's built
You get Week 0 through Week 13: the optional transition, the 12 work weeks and the closing week.
- Week 0 — transitionOptional
Just finished another plan from the collection (Base, for example)? Do Week 0. Coming off rest, vacation, or unstructured riding? Skip it and start at Week 1.
- Weeks 1 to 12 — the plan12 weeks
The full work block, day by day, with warm-up, main set, cool-down and goal.
- Week 13 — wrap-upIncluded
Plan wrap-up and instructions for what's next: how to evaluate what you gained and what to do after.
What's included
- 12 weeks
- Days: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday
- Intensity by %FTP, with feel (RPE) as backup
Example (Week 1): Long ride in Z2, 65–72% FTP, no intensity. Eat 60 g carbs/h from minute 30 using the event's products. The long ride is the cornerstone: this is where endurance is built.
How it works
- 1. You buy the plan (one-time payment).
- 2. Your account is created and you unlock the week-by-week calendar.
- 3. Every day you see your workout in plain language: warm-up, main set, cool-down and goal. Intensity by feel.
- 4. You mark the day as done and keep moving forward.
