A typical week starts on the Saturday with an easy roll-out of two to three hours once people have landed and built up. Sunday is hilly, four to five hours. Monday goes properly into the mountains for five to six hours. Tuesday is the rest day. Wednesday is either the lactate test or another four to five hours of climbing. Thursday is the queen stage — the Küstenklassiker, five to seven hours, with a chartered bus down to Port d'Andratx in the morning and the ride back up the coast. Friday is flatter, four to five hours with one climb, and Saturday is departure, with the lactate test slotted in at camp.

Every day has a specific purpose. The aim across the week is to build your base and add targeted work at threshold and VO2max before the outdoor season starts. Routes are finalised closer to the camp and sent to you as GPX files so you can see what you're in for. Morning mobility and athletics sessions are on offer before the rides, and on good days they happen on the beach.

Off the bike there are sports-science talks and discussion rounds with the coaches, plus after-ride evenings at the hotel bar. None of it is compulsory — if you'd rather sit in the sauna, walk to the beach or answer work emails in your room, that's fine, you just tell the team. You also get a free two-week training plan to follow after the camp.

What separates this from a generic Mallorca training week is the group structure and the coaching. Three FTP bands, each with its own leaders, means the rides actually hold together. The lactate diagnostics at the mountain (three measurements) are included in the price; a fuller lactate step test is available for a fee. Massages can be booked through the team at extra cost.

Base is Port d'Alcúdia in the north of the island, which puts you minutes from the Tramuntana foothills and the roads to Lluc, Cap Formentor and Sa Calobra, or inland via the Schilf-Straße. The hotels sit about 150 m from the long sandy beach and a short walk from the town centre, so evenings don't have to be spent in the hotel.
