FTP Test???

Thom Reid

Coach Rich:

Based on my race calendar you had me jump from OS week 11 into Short Course week 16.  That took me up to Short Course week 20 and the Pat Griskus Olympic.  After that I jumped into Half IM week 13, taking me to Half IM week 16, which ends this week with the Litchfield Hills Olympic.  Next week I jump into the Full IM week 9.  I haven't done an FTP test since the OS program, though, and there doesn't appear to be another one on the horizon between now and IM Louisville.  When can I modify my program to get in an FTP test?

 Thanks!

Thom, if you feel you need to formally test to reset your training zones, you can do that anytime by simply substituting the FTP test for the weekday interval session. Good luck!
