- Periodization periods are 4 weeks long.
- They are designed in the following way:
- Run focus week
- Bike focus week
- Mixed week
- Rest week
- The focus week means which sport will have the key workouts for the week.
- We will still work on the other 2 sports and strength.
- However, the whole week is geared for key markers on that specific sport.
- Rest week means a pretty light week in terms of intensity and distance.
- In that week, your body can recover and adapt to the hard periodization period that ended.
