Community Maintained Foundational Routines

I see a lot of routine and program creation questions in the community. Would anyone be interested in collaborating on a foundational training system that can answer all of these questions and act as a good starting point for anyone looking to build their own hybrid training plan?

I understand that it is hard to have a single "The Routine", because hybrid training means...whatever you want. Whatever your goals are changes the whole routine.

HOWEVER I think we could create a foundational system with the basics: How to manage running + lifting, how to incorporate calisthenics & rucking if desired, when cycling & swimming can act as low impact alternatives.

I think it could be simple...or as complicated as we decide it should be.

It can also act as a foundational resource for nutrition, fueling, and periodization.

Thoughts? Do others feel the need for this sort of community resource? Or are recommended purchases (TB books etc) enough?

What cycling training plans/programs do people still swear by?

I’ve been curating a free library of public/community-built training systems...everything from marathon/ultra plans to pull-up programs and beginner endurance plans.

One area I’d really like to expand more is cycling.

Looking for cycling programs/training plans people still swear by.

Could be:

  • beginner cycling plans
  • FTP-focused programs
  • endurance/base-building systems
  • climbing-focused plans
  • old forum/blog gems
  • underrated programs
  • adaptations/variations people have made over time

Especially interested in plans that are:

  • hard to find nowadays
  • scattered across PDFs/spreadsheets/forums
  • annoying to manage manually
  • commonly modified by the community etc

If you’ve got links, PDFs, old posts, forum threads, etc drop them below.

TL;DR:
Looking for cycling oriented training programs that people think are the best or wish were not just PDF spreadsheets. Links if you've got em!

What hybrid/endurance training systems deserve modern versions?

What hybrid programs do you think deserve modern/forkable versions?

I’ve been collecting different training systems people swear by — everything from marathon/ultra plans to pull-up programs and hybrid/endurance templates — and rebuilding into forkable/adaptable versions.

One thing I’ve noticed is that a lot of great programs end up fragmented across PDFs, spreadsheets, old forum posts, etc, and there isn’t much discussion around adapting/building on them over time.

Curious what this community thinks are the “must preserve” hybrid programs/templates.

Could be:

  • classic hybrid routines
  • tactical systems
  • endurance-strength blends
  • old forum gems
  • underrated programs
  • variations/adaptations people have made over time

...or anything you think is worth saving/improving!

Would genuinely love recommendations/source links/etc. PDF links would be preferable!

TL;DR:
Looking for favorite, suggested, and classic hybrid programs/routines. Training program/plan recommendations!
