Periodization in Endurance Training: Planning Your Season

[VO2Commander]

Structured training leads to peak performance. That's where periodization comes in.
Periodization helps you:

• Break your training year into phases (e.g., base, build, peak, taper).
• Vary volume and intensity to optimize adaptations and prevent overtraining.
• Target specific races or events effectively.

"Planning is bringing the future into the present so that you can do something about it now."
