Fabio Jakobsen’s workouts vary during preseason and racing season to prepare as best as possible for the sprints of one-day races, multi-day stage races and grand tours. With the Fabio Jakobsen Sprint Plan, Fabio will give you an insight into his different workouts as your personal coach. Which workout really makes him happy when it shows up in his training plan? In addition, each workout has its unique goal. What should you pay attention to when you start the workout and how do you determine whether you have performed the workout correctly? Just as important is how you deal with safety in traffic during the workout. In this way, the Fabio Jakobsen Sprint Plan provides a unique insight into the workouts of a cycling pro.
In this JOIN training plan, you will find a balanced training structure with the goal of Getting Better. From start to finish the Fabio Jakobsen Training Plan is built on this philosophy. Everything is set towards transforming you from wheelsucker to a successful sprint bomb. Besides the unique sprint workouts, your regular training sessions will be scheduled according to your weekly availability. If you have set your availability for one or multiple days a week, the Fabio sprint workout will always be scheduled. With the collaboration between JOIN Cycling and Fabio Jakobsen, we let amateur cyclists experience what it is like to complete the specific training sessions of a pro on world tour level. After completing this training plan, you will be ready to compete with your cycling friends in the final of Sunday’s club ride.
Only one can win the sprint, but behind individual success usually a team effort takes the necessary training hours. The individual class must be used in the right way within the team to achieve a perfect lead-out for Fabio at training camp during preseason 2022. Team Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl gives an insight into a training day of the riders who are involved in the sprint train.
Sprinting remains a hot topic for cyclists on every level. That’s why it is one of the most asked topics for the Beter Worden Podcast. In this podcast, Laurens is speaking as an ex-pro rider without sprinting qualities, Jim who provides insight from a scientific angle, and Stefan as an amateur rider who is trying to figure out the game of sprinting for amateurs.
