Zack Allison will be on hand to answer training and coaching specific questions.  In addition to the Cross Camp, SETCR is hosting a 6 Weeks to Fitness Cyclocross Edition.  The classes will run on Wednesdays and Thursdays September 6th-October 12th.  If you’re planning to race CX Nationals in Reno or you just want to improve as a racer, either or both of these events would be great starts.

6 Weeks to Fitness: Cyclocross Edition 

The 6 Weeks to Fitnees CX Edition will take place on Wednesdays and Thursdays 9/6-10/12. You have a choice of either 630am classes or 530pm classes. 

One day each week will be specific to cyclocross intervals, progressing in intensity each week. The second day will be agility and weight training focusing on the accelerations demanded in cyclocross.

With these combined workouts, you’ll get faster and faster week after week! Their first group of participants in the 6 Weeks to Fitness program saw an 11% FTP gain. Expect to see not only a great FTP gain but, more importantly for cyclocross, an increase anaerobic capacity.
