Highlights of Your Training Plan.

1. Record your ride.
Always record your rides no matter how short they are. Try to be as accurate as possible. It really helps and motivate you to do more.

2. General flow.
70% Slow Pedal Ride (Improves Endurance + Aerobic Capacity)
20% Fast Pedal Ride (Improves Lactate Threshold)
10% Max Effort (Improves VO2 Max, meaning Increase in aerobic capacity)

3. Exercise for core.
Do core strength exercises. No matter how fit or unfit you are. Do it daily for 20mins.

4. Stretching.
Always. Every Day. You should do good amount of stretching for 20mins after every ride. This will increase your flexibility and you won't be feeling pain in any part of your body after a long and tiring day.

5. Time Shortage.
If you don't have time for 2 hour rides, please substitute this with 30 min running or swimming. These will help you increase your aerobic capacity significantly. Again, In Manali Leh ride, you need more of aerobic capacity then the muscle strength.
