Time to check in for an update on how the Mountain Training Program from James Wilson is going. The picture above is as far as I have gotten! I know…pretty pathetic…but with the redesign, site move and beginning year stuff, I haven’t been able to get to the workout other than prepare for it.
The Ultimate MTB Workout Program – Version 2.0
The above picture shows a black and white print out of James Wilson’s MTB Training Program. After going through the printouts, I am very impressed. Not only does the program lay out everything you need to do in your workouts (and when), but it also explains why you are doing these exercises in this succession and how it effects your body. The amount of information contained in this program can almost be overwhelming at first, but after a short flip through…getting to your first workout and getting started will get rid of those bugs. James also does a follow-up email series that helps dissect the individual aspects of the program to help get you started.
This is not one of those infomercials on how to become a better rider in 30 days or less or your money back guaranteed (maybe the ShamWow guy could put on a presentation). This is a full out program that is going to bring your body to full on mountain biking shape. But…like any workout program, you have to actually get off your ass and do it.
Over the next couple of weeks, I am going to dive into the program and get to work. The idea is to check back in from time to time and write up the results I am seeing in my own riding and fitness level.
Having friends to have managed and owned gyms, I know what a program like this really costs on the retail level and that makes this program from James even more of a bargain. With his professional background and the in-depth nature of this program, I am sure I am going to see some positive results.
