The ROUVY Specialized mountain bikE PRO training plan

The ROUVY Specialized MTB training plan was crafted to help mountain biking enthusiasts enhance their skills and strength with pro-designed workouts on the indoor cycling app. Designed by Jakub Kadlec, a ROUVY Specialized team coach.

WEEK #1

We’ll start the week with a sprint session to activate your fast-twitch muscle fibres, and finish with high-intensity intervals.

WEEK #2

In Week 2, you’ll take on short sprints that will improve your finishing speed, as well as another HIIT session. Don’t hold back!

WEEK #3

Keep it going with short sprints to improve your finishing speed, followed by workouts to build skills specific to an XCO race.

WEEK #4

Finish up with some sprints designed to improve your absolute speed, strength-building work, and one last HIIT session.

AFTER THE TRAINING PLAN: WHAT’S NEXT?

After completing this training plan, it's crucial to give your body the rest it needs. Enjoy a week of easy riding – either outdoors or on the ROUVY indoor cycling app – in zones 1 and 2, maintaining a steady cadence of 90 RPM. Remember, rest is just as important as training. Ignoring rest and recovery can lead to overtraining, so prioritize it.
