In the first session, you will ride a “trials” course. The coach assigned to the class will ask you several times during the session about your perceived effort and will adjust the workout accordingly.
This class is free and is designed to give you an idea of how the training works and give us an idea of your general fitness level. We will use this information at your second session, during which you will take a Functional Threshold Power (FTP) test. That test will provide our coaches with information that we use to set your training zones. These zones are used to create individualized training sessions for you. The FTP test will be repeated periodically as you get stronger and progress toward your goals.
Once your evaluation is complete, every time you come into Power Up you will be given a workout specifically designed for you based on your fitness, experience and goals. Throughout the class, the coach checks on each person to ensure he or she understands their workout and is doing it as prescribed. If an adjustment to the workout is needed our coaches are there to do it.
