Raise the Floor: The Base Phase That Sets Up Your Entire Season

Base season is where everything starts. In this video, I break down how I’m building my aerobic engine for a huge 2026 gravel season—and why this phase matters more than anything else you’ll do all year. We’ll cover what base training actually is, why it’s all about raising the floor, and how to structure your weeks around time (not TSS) with a heavy emphasis on Zone 2. I’ll walk through my own winter plan—mixing indoor training, strength work, XC/backcountry skiing, and small doses of tempo and Sweet Spot—to build the foundation for races like Unbound, Steamboat GRVL, RPI, and a long fall cycling trip. If you’re training indoors this winter or coming off some downtime, this episode will help you build a rock-solid base and set the stage for your strongest season yet. Thanks for watching, team. Base season is where everything starts — it’s the foundation that carries you through spring and summer. Drop a comment and tell me: ➡️ What’s your base season goal this winter? Is it more consistency? More volume? Getting strong in the gym? Let’s help each other build the floor before we chase the ceiling. If you want a breakdown of my weekly base structure or strength routine, let me know and I’ll film a full video on it. Train like it matters. — AJ
