Race week execution

This is where the house of cards falls. Most guys get done with a weekend race and they think they need to just work harder. So they tackle the next week with a vengance. Crush every interval and then line up on Saturday only to get spit out the back again. Stop the cycle. Manage your week and stop setting yourself up for failure.

Monday is for recovery. Z1-Z2.

Tuesday CritFit WOD but only if your recovered.

Wednesday Critfit WOD. Kill it.

Thursday Is for recovery Z1-Z2

Friday is race prep. See the race prep page. Race prep is not interval training. There is a big difference.

Saturday Race

Sunday Race or Recover Z1-Z2

or if the race is Sunday only

Tuesday CritFit WOD but only if your recovered.

Wednesday recover Z1-Z2

Thursday CritFit WOD

Friday recover Z1-Z2

Saturday Race prep. See race prep page.

Sunday Race

If you race the Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday Night World Championships let that be a substitute for the midweek WOD. In fact, no more than 2 intensity efforts (IE’s)/WOD’s in five days and 3 IE’s/WOD’s in seven days. Break these rules and your house of cards will fall. We have found that unless you are a freak of nature or seriously gifted, more than 3 in 7 requires to much recovery. The juice just isn’t worth the squeeze. CoachT out!
