🏋️‍♂️ Physical preparation – the key to success

Good preparation is absolutely essential if you wish to take part in an extreme mountain bike endurance event such as RocDuMaroc.

Pushing your boundaries is one thing, but to make the most of the adventure is another. Those who arrive at the starting line well prepared will experience it much more intensely and will significantly increase their chances of crossing the finish line.

📆 Start early – At least 4 months in advance
It is recommended to start a structured training program at least four months before the event. With 3 to 4 sessions per week, you will lay a solid foundation for success.

🔄 Combine different types of training:

🚴‍♂️ Endurance training (road cycling) – to develop your endurance and resistance capabilities.

⛰️ Strength training and intervals (MTB) – to improve power, explosiveness and technical skills.

📊 Training recommendations

  • Road workouts minimum 3 hours per session

  • Off-road outings minimum 1.5 hours per session

In the last five weeks before departure, gradually increase your total weekly training volume by approximately 7 hours to approximately 11 hours per week to arrive in the best possible condition.
