Taper For a Race or Event | MTB Tips.


You have trained hard and now the big race or trip is approaching. You want to turn up feeling fast, fresh and motivated, not tired, sore and slow.

This is where a race week taper comes in. It is simply a process of altering your training and recovery so that you arrive at the start line or the trail head in peak condition, ready to give 100%.

Thanks to MBUK and Andy Lloyd for the cover photo for this video.
