Program
This theme week is all about improving the racing bike in general. Both physically, and technically, and mentally. We have a varied cycling program where we include all types of training; endurance training, interval training (intensive and extensive), sprint exercises, we will climb a lot but also a day flatter. Halfway through the week we organize an information evening about, among other things, cycling techniques in the mountains. And most importantly, we enjoy a pleasant cycling week in the sunshine of Girona.
This week is intended for all levels, as we start each day in three different groups with three professional coaches. Group 1 for the novice cyclist, group 2 for recreational cyclists who usually cycle 2-3 times a week and group 3 for fanatical recreational cyclists who go for gold or a good result in cyclos. Every morning we start together with a coffee on the square Independencia and we often gather afterwards with the enthusiasts for a joint lunch in the center.
We start Monday with an easy spin. The next two days, build up long endurance training. Followed by a one-hour recovery workout. The following three days we increase the pace slightly and do some exercises in the training sessions (intervals, strength blocks, sprints and more) all well adjusted to the level of the group. And on the last day (Sunday) we participate with the enthusiasts in the local cyclosportieg / touring tour “Ciclobrava”, with start and finish in the city of Girona and in which even some professionals participate. And this weekend there is also the largest bicycle expo in Europe where all major brands show their latest materials: “Sea Otter Europe”. Every day we tackle a new route from the province of Girona. Please ask us for the exact program.
