2PEAK training planning is based on state of the art science and therefore takes into account the latest findings in performance physiology. We will show you how endurance performance is delineated and classified on a scientific basis. In further articles we will show how these scientific facts influence modern training planning and how, thanks to the newest knowledge, you can increase your performance quicker and more specifically.

2PEAK’s Training Philosophy
2PEAK is more than just a training plan – it is an intelligent and adaptive system based on years of research, real data, and cutting-edge technology. Through the principles of periodisation and supercompensation, 2PEAK dynamically adapts your training by optimally balancing intensity, endurance and recovery. This allows you to unlock your full athletic potential. But what makes 2PEAK so unique? What scientific principles is it based on? And why does it stand out from all other training programs?
Too Much or Too Little
2PEAK optimizes your fitness potential (yes precisely yours and not the average of randomized group).
Reverse Periodisation
“We do work in the off season, but it’s short and sharp”
Brett Sutton
In this text we look at the confusion surrounding the topic of intervals and the answers to the problems of “when is an interval an interval?” and “training by heart rate or pace?”.
Postpone workouts or recalculate the plan
It happens from time to time that you can’t or don’t want to complete a workout as planned. Whether it’s due to the weather, a busy schedule, or simply not feeling up to it. With 2PEAK, that’s not a problem. Why? Because the plan always adjusts to the changed circumstances.
Cardiovascular drift is a well-known phenomenon, but the exact timing of its occurrence in the body remains unclear, as it is highly individual and depends on many different factors. Essentially, cardiovascular drift is when your heart rate increases even though your exercise intensity remains the same.
During winter, without any races going on you’re mostly just training (more or less by yourself). You train but you still don’t really know where you stand in comparison to other athletes. Then Easter rolls along, many have already been in their first training camp for this year and the race season is only a few weeks away. Yup, time is definitely flying by and with it comes the question if we are on course/track. Am I training enough? Am I making progress? Is my data correct?
Periodisation of carbohydrate intake in endurance sports – a possibility to efficiently enhance performance and to burn fat.
Working out indoors is not the most pleasant thing for most cyclists. But engaging in it allows for very specific and effective workouts.
