Training Kickoff for 2007 Race Season

The training will offically start November 20th 2006 and continue through the 2007 race season. The vast majority of the training is based on the popular book by Joe Friel "The MTB Training Bible". The basic method of periodization is applied to build more race specific skills as the training progresses. The major ideal that I am trying to hold is to do the least amount of work to achieve the desired result. What that basically means is that more is not always better and there is diminishing returns to the time put into training.
