CYCLING

Cycling training plans, built for your goal

A serious cycling training plan is built around power zones, not guesswork — sweet-spot work, threshold intervals and a properly structured taper matter more than raw mileage. SportBlox builds your cycling training plan around your FTP, goal and event date, and works with your Strava data.

Who it's for

First century ride or gran fondo

Personalisation

How SportBlox personalises it

Your goal & event date

Sessions build toward the specific goal and date you set, with a taper if you're racing or competing.

Your skill level

Volume and intensity scale to where you actually are, from Inexperienced to Professional.

Your stated weaknesses

Tell SportBlox about things like climbing power-to-weight, sustained threshold pacing, bike handling in a bunch and the plan weights sessions toward fixing them.

Your schedule

The plan fits the days and time you say you have — not an idealised training week.

Works with Strava

Connect Strava and your logged sessions feed back into pacing and progression.

For coaches

Coaching a cycling team?

SportBlox builds your team's training plan around the squad as a whole — its goals, weaknesses and upcoming events — and you review and refine every session before your athletes see it.

FAQ

Cycling training plan FAQ

Does this work with my Strava data?

Yes — connect Strava and SportBlox can use your ride history to refine pacing and progression over time.

Can I follow this on an indoor trainer?

Yes, structured interval sessions translate directly to a smart trainer; flag indoor-only as a constraint if that's your setup.

Is it suitable if I've never raced before?

Yes — set your goal to an endurance event rather than a race and the plan skips race-specific speed work.

Can it work around my commuting miles?

Tell it about existing commute rides and it counts them toward easy volume rather than adding on top.

Does the plan taper before my event?

Yes, add your event date and the final week automatically reduces volume while keeping intensity sharp.
