Cycling Training Skill for Muse
Science-based cycling coaching: FTP zones, workouts, periodization, load analysis
- What
- Science-based cycling coaching: FTP zones, workouts, periodization, load analysis
- Cost
- Free
- Needs
- your current FTP (recent test, or you'll test one as part of the setup), how many hours per week you can train, and your target event/date if any. A power meter or smart trainer gets you the most value; the Python scripts need python3 (stdlib only, no extra installs). No accounts, no API keys.
- Install
- Copy the installer prompt below into your Muse — your agent does the rest.
Turns Muse into an evidence-based cycling coach grounded in peer-reviewed sports science: it designs training plans (8-week base builder, 16-week indoor season, 16-week outdoor season templates), calculates FTP-based power zones (Coggan 7-zone, Seiler 3-zone, iLevels), prescribes intervals and sweet-spot workouts with execution guidance, plans periodization (base → build → peak with mesocycle load:recovery ratios), and analyzes training load (TSS, IF, VI, CTL/ATL/TSB, ACWR) with warning signs for overtraining — plus indoor-training setup (fan, cooling, ERG vs slope mode), nutrition and recovery guidance, and dedicated sections for masters, women, beginners, and time-crunched athletes. Ships with Python calculation scripts (zone calc, TSS, weekly analysis) and a companion-skill integration for intervals.icu data. Discovered via skills.sh. Honest note: it targets equipped cyclists — a power meter or smart trainer gets you the most value, and the Python scripts are optional helpers, not the core; the intervals.icu companion skill is optional (bring your own data or import manually); as with any training program, this is coaching guidance, not medical advice — the skill flags cardiovascular red flags and says to seek medical evaluation when warranted. Skill Harbor never reviews the code, review it yourself before use. Not verified.

Install
Prerequisites: your current FTP (recent test, or you'll test one as part of the setup), how many hours per week you can train, and your target event/date if any. A power meter or smart trainer gets you the most value; the Python scripts need python3 (stdlib only, no extra installs). No accounts, no API keys. Install "Cycling Training Skill for Muse" for me. An evidence-based cycling coach: training plan templates (8-week base, 16-week indoor/outdoor seasons), FTP-based power-zone calculation (Coggan, Seiler, iLevels models), interval and sweet-spot workout prescription with execution guidance, periodization planning (base → build → peak), and training-load analysis (TSS, CTL/ATL/TSB, ACWR) with overtraining warnings — plus indoor-training setup, nutrition/recovery guidance, and sections for masters, women, beginners, and time-crunched athletes. Repository: https://github.com/disco-trooper/skills/blob/main/cycling-training/SKILL.md 1. Fetch the SKILL.md file (and its helper files: references/ and scripts/) from the repository path into a temporary folder and summarize what it does in one or two sentences. 2. Safety check: review the SKILL.md and scripts for anything suspicious (unexpected network calls, shell commands, credential harvesting). This repo should contain zero secrets in code, credentials only via the secure vault, allowed hosts declared in the SKILL.md. Verify that holds here; STOP on any red flag and tell me. 3. Install it as a skill: copy SKILL.md and its helper files into the agent's skills directory, in a folder named "cycling-training". 4. Verify with no network calls: frontmatter valid, files in place. 5. Report what was installed, where, and what I still need to do myself (e.g. share my current FTP, weekly hours, and target event so it can build my first plan). GitHub is optional: if I have a GitHub account or the gh CLI, you may use it; otherwise public access is fine. Never require it unless it's in the prerequisites above. Rules: don't touch anything outside the temp folder and the install target. If anything looks off, stop and ask me.
Questions
How do I install a build?
Every product page includes a copy-paste install prompt. Paste it into your Muse and it sets the build up for you — no manual configuration.
Where does my money go?
Straight to the seller. Skill Harbor never processes payments: checkout happens on the seller’s own page, usually Stripe.
What does the ✓ next to a creator’s name mean?
It means we confirmed the identity of the person behind the listing. It says nothing about the code itself — always check a build before installing it.
