Finishing up Sweet Spot 3 next week and planning for what is next. My schedule originally called for going into the FasCat XC plans and getting into harder efforts but with no races on the horizon for the foreseeable future…that seems like maybe not the best route. I am considering doing the Sweet Spot Marathon MTB plan after SS3 is over. Thoughts? Any other suggestions?
Hi @meyers.mick6 - the sweet spot marathon certainly seems like a good choice, especially with the good weather we have coming to us.
At some point (so you don’t sweet spot train all year long) weave in some XC intervals like you were planning and/or some hill climbing intervals or both. You need/want to go hard and increase your FTP even further after all that sweet spottin’!
