Functional Threshold Power (FTP) Classes beginning this Wednesday (1/4)and running through Saturday (1/7) . This class is highly recommend for anyone signed up for the 10 week session. Determining your FTP at the Speed Shop will allow you to train more specifically during CompuTrainer Classes. In addition to power zones classes will be providing percentages of FTP as a guide for maximum performance. If you have a heart rate monitor please bring it and your heart rate training zones will be provided as well. The class will last 1 hour. FTP changes on a regular basis for each person. If you took the class before the 6 week fall session it is important to update your information in order to train with accurate information. If you are new to the classes or just coming back to train to this is a great place to start.
The 2012 Winter Session will start on Monday 1/9. There are still a few spots available if you have been on the fence about signing up now is the time. Go here to register. If you have signed up for a season class or the FTP class check out the confirmed rider list to confirm your time slot.
The 2012 Winter "Top Dog" Time Trial Competition will be offered during regularly scheduled classes in addition to some random weekends. The categories will be the same as the 2011 Fall "Top Dog" Time Trial Competition. More details coming soon.
There is a lot of training to do this winter and we're looking forward to getting started.
Happy New Year!!
