The Smartest Way To Train For More Speed On Gravel - Rosa Klöser

We’ve just started to build something really cool. Want to be one of the first to join? 👉 https://www.skool.com/roadmancycling/... Riding faster on gravel isn’t about copying road plans or just piling on more hours — it’s about training for the surface’s unique demands. In this episode, Rosa Klöser shares how she prepares to win the biggest gravel races in the world, from Unbound to The Rift, despite wildly different courses. We dive into how she builds training blocks, why VO₂ max and fatigue resistance are game-changers, and how nutrition, pacing, and altitude can matter as much as power. Stick around to the end for the mindset shift that took her from surviving to winning.
