J.R. SMITH’S POWER CYCLING CAMP 2010/2011
This year we will be continuing with a 4 phase periodization program
(Base/Strength,
VO2/Anerobic Capacity, Lactate Threshold and Competition). We will also continue with the
Elite
category in our program. The program now contains Sport, Expert and Elite workout
protocols all within the same class
structure. The categories are determined by pre program
wattage testing done on lab model Computrainers. The breakdown
is as follows:
Sport – less than 1.30 watts per lb of body weight at VO2
Expert – 1.30 to 1.59 watts
per lb of body weight at VO2
Elite – 1.60 plus watts per lb of body weight at VO2
This breakdown lets riders
of all abilities participate in the program and get the same benefit of
structured workouts to maximize their performance.
We
will also be continuing our very successful 3 hour seminar on training, nutrition and sports
medicine as part of our
program. We will have additional noted experts in their field on these
subjects.
Registration for the program
will begin on Sept. 20th, 2010 and the first class will start on
November 15th, 2010. Classes end on March 12th, 2011.
Register early as we have limited space
and usually fill all available slots prior to the start of Power Camp. Also,
just a reminder to
schedule your testing as soon as possible after you register, as time slots get very limited as the
start
of Power Camp approaches.
This year we will be back with the Power Camp Extension program, which was so successful
last
season. It will consist of three intense workouts per week for the period from March 14th,
2011 thru April 8th, 2011.
Sign up early for this as the number of openings are very limited due
to this being a morning class only at most of
the facilities. The workouts will also be based on a
power/weight basis so that everyone can participate. This program
is limited to participants of
the regular Power Camp program.
We will be adding some very experienced new coaches
as well as most of our excellent coaches
from previous years are returning. I can’t say enough about the quality
of our coaching staff in
the area of specificity expertise as well as practical application of the workout protocols
to help
make your workouts more productive and emphasize our philosophy of training smart.
Hope to see everyone
back for the 2010/2011 season as well as some new faces.
