# Base Plan Because of XYZ, Coach Jack feels that the Base Plan is the best place for you to start training to meet your longer-term goals. Performance cyclists are not made in a few months or even a single season. Success requires dedication. If you can put in the hard work and stick with the Base Plan for three months, you will have built the necessary foundation to move up to more demanding workout plans. By following Coach Jack's customized Base Plan, you will quickly and efficiently develop a firm bedrock of aerobic fitness and mechanical resilience. The Base Plan may not have the glamor and glitz of other workout plans, but without a solid foundation you may never reach your full cycling potential.
