Peloton's "Train Like a Pro" with Christian Vande Velde Program.

Christian Vande Velde’s “Train Like A Pro” Peloton Training Program

Peloton has announced a new program taught by guest instructor Christian Vande Velde called “Train Like A Pro.”

This is a one week cycling training program (with 6 days worth of classes) which Christian has designed to simulate some of the training rides he would have done outdoors to train for the Tour De France. This is created to “build the foundations of professional-level cycling.”

The different cycling class types include:

  • HIIT Training Ride
  • Endurance Training Ride
  • Recovery Ride
  • Special Training Ride
  • Speed Training Ride

Christian states this will allow you to “take all the guess work out of what you should be doing to have more intention in your training”. He will help you work on power, speed work, intensity, as well as recovery.
