    Hi all,

    I am about to embark on my second season of the Freeride plan and have a question about timing. I live in Colorado where I’ll start touring in early December, but won’t pursue any big objectives until probably April. With that in mind, how shall I time my training so that I can enjoy and be fit for my early season days – along with some inbounds days – while also peaking at the right time in spring without being overtrained by then? As of right now I am not aerobically deficient and could actually benefit from more Z3 work, IMO. (Aet = 145, top of Zone 3 159ish)

    My main idea is to basically run the first 3 weeks of the program several times in fall/winter until I’m 12 weeks out of my target date. Is this right?

    Secondary question – lateral bar hops in the ME phase are probably great for skiers, but what are some alternatives for us splitboarders?

    Chris,

    Did you figure out how to extend your training plan?
