Winter Training Time
11/18/2011
Winter is approaching in these parts. I just went through my bike clothing last night to pull out the leg warmers, jackets, thick gloves, and shoe covers. Adjusting to the cold snap and frozen trails takes a few rides, but after that I actually enjoy the change of season and conditions. It's also an important time to build strength and fitness for next season. The miles you bank in the winter are the funds that you will have to draw from in 2012. Quantity and quality both matter, so think carefully about how you plan, manage and execute your off season training.
If you are looking for a framework on how to lay out your training over the next few months, check out my 20 Week Winter Training Plan here:

Lots of useful info, including a recommended workout every day, an alternate workout for bad weather, core training guidelines and a large selection of lively indoor trainer workouts. A perfect holiday gift for the mountain biker that you know (or just give yourself the gift of fitness).
