Build Module
Build your fitness fast!
Designed to be used in conjunction with my base and peak modules (or any of my specialty modules), the build module is designed to increase your fitness through a series of targeted workouts.
- 8 total weeks of training
- 2 rest weeks
- Raise functional threshold, increase VO2 max repeatability and build muscular endurance
- Combine with my base module and peak module for a complete season-long training solution
- Combine with my cyclocross module for a complete cyclocross training solution
- Workouts are based on Lactate Threshold Heart Rate or Functional Threshold Power (LTHR or FTP) which you can read more about in this post.

After graduating from Ithaca College with a degree in Exercise and Sport Science/Pharmacology, I continued my education with a doctorate of Chiropractic from New York Chiropractic College. As I progressed through my education, I was able to apply the concepts I learned in the lab to my own daily workouts and goals. At the time, I was following some of the principles of traditional coaching and getting mediocre results. Frustrated, I realized that if I could apply all my physiology, chemistry, nutrition and training knowledge, I could “build a better mousetrap” not just for my own training, but for other athletes. With this goal in mind, I started Tailwind Coaching, to help cyclists [with busy lives and limited training time] become stronger, faster, fitter and healthier. And while I may not be a ex-ProTour rider, an Olympic Coach or even a prolific race winner, I am something that most coaches are not: a regular guy just like you who has a job, a family and a desire to be a stronger cyclist.
