Workout bundle

Winter Warrior

A 53-workout race-season toolkit combining progressive long endurance, race and team time trial simulations, recovery sessions, and targeted warm-ups.

Bundle intent

Why this bundle exists.

Winter Warrior is built for the demands of an esports cycling race season. It brings the supporting work, race-specific preparation, and recovery options into one pack, so each session can be chosen for the job the week actually requires.

The long-endurance workouts provide a progressive aerobic thread, while the race and team time trial simulations rehearse the repeated changes in power that steady-state training cannot reproduce. Dedicated recovery, maintenance, and warm-up sessions make the pack useful around competition rather than only between races.

This is a toolkit, not a fixed calendar. Race frequency, fatigue, team role, and available training time should determine which session comes next. The aim is to support better decisions through winter racing, not to fill every open day with more intensity.

How to use it

Use it with intent.

Use the sessions to solve a specific training problem, not simply to collect more intensity.

01

Build durable endurance

Progress through the long sessions to develop aerobic durability while retaining the changes of pace demanded by virtual racing.

02

Rehearse race demands

Choose a race or team time trial simulation that reflects the course, likely team size, and tactical demands ahead.

03

Manage the week around racing

Use the warm-up, recovery, and maintenance sessions to arrive prepared without turning every ride into another race.
