STRENGTH TRAINING FOR CYCLISTS

My plans and services enable cyclists to develop the physical attributes needed to maximise their potential on the bike

WIth years of experience in a performance environment and a passion for cycling, I know the huge benefits all cyclists will gain from adding a strength program to their training.

Structured resistance training will provide the necessary adaptations to increase power, strength and mobility. These improved physical qualities have a direct correlation to your performance on the bike as well as making you more robust, decreasing your risk to injury. Training is far more effective when built around an individual and I pride myself in making every program specifically tailored to the individual, carrying out a comprehensive assessment at the start of each clients journey.

Training sessions and plans should be tailored to the individual based on their strengths, limitations and lifestyle constraints.

This is the stable base from which to build cycling specific adaptations. Establishing adequate range of motion, strength and control through that motion is the foundation on which cycling fitness should rest.

While certain cycling injuries are unavoidable (the dreaded crash), having a strong, mobile body will go a long way to make you more robust, improving your resilience to injuries.

I appreciate how hard it can be to drag yourself away from that precious time on the Bike, and I wouldn’t be recommending strength training unless I was sure about its benefits.

The programs I provide can cater for all gym set ups, whether that be a full gym membership or minimal kit at home. I can tailor each program to fit the individual and make sure the training elicits the best possible results.
