Custom Periodization

Reaching your goals depends on clearly knowing what they are, and then having an excellent plan in place. A performance roadmap (or Yearly Training Plan) available with Podium packages is developed in the first few weeks of the program and outlines how training and life can be optimally integrated to minimize barriers and achieve goals. By acknowledging and incorporating significant family, work and training events, clients are empowered to enjoy the time they spend training.

File Analysis

Getting better requires critically reflecting on your training.

What went well? What went poorly? What can be learned?

Consistent application of these principles, and incorporating small adjustments to training where appropriate allows individuals to train harder and smarter.

Modifications & Responsiveness

Family, Work, Weather. Things happen. Distractions are inevitable.

If you run into these threats to your program don’t let them derail you. We will help you solve the Rubix cube that is integrating training while having a family, kids, etc.

Together we can ensure your time is optimized and your challenges minimized. Remember, you are doing this because you enjoy it!

 

Accountability

“That which you measure, changes”.

Our coaches /sport scientist creates a framework of accountability not only for yourself but for our programming.

If you are not responding to the training, we will catch it and adjust it accordingly. Similarly, if you are not executing the workouts as planned, we will also catch that. 

Throughout the program we will conduct sub-maximal or maximal assessments to both prescribe and describe your physiological response to work. 

FAQ

What coaching package should I get?

Introduction – for the recreational cyclist who is looking for 2-3 strucutred workouts per week to improve fitness and performance, custom programming, and personalized feedback.

Elite – for the motivated cyclist who rides 3-5 X wk, is looking for accountability and support to make performance gains, and who is preparing for a race.

Podium – for the highly motivated cyclist who rides daily, who recognizes time is the most valuable asset and therfore needs the most efficient forms of training, who has specific performance targets, and who is looking for intimate help and achieved new levels.

What equipment do I need to train with you?

In general, its preferred that we have the ability to monitor some form of physiological stress that occurs due to training. The most basic way to do this is by capturing heart rate data through a heart rate strap or watch. Increasing the variables monitored through a speed and cadence sensor, or power meter increases the fidelity of both interpreting and prescribing load. 

What online training applications do you work with?

We have the capability to deliver programming through a variety of online cycling platforms. We have experience with Trainer Road, Training Peaks, Ziwft, FUL Gas and others to ensure your indoor training rides are both fun and effective.  

Do you have month-to-month services, or do I have to sign a 12-month commitment?

We understand that sometimes opportunities to be involved in events can come up quickly with minimal time to prepare. We offer month-to month membership options for individuals who need quick and short term access to our expertise to prepare for an event. 

Do you have non-membership programming?

While we do not believe in static templated programs, we do offer a series of testing services which are accompanied by a training block prescription (usually 12 weeks). This allows individuals to come get an assessment, and have a personally tailored program for a short period of time. 

What happens at the end of my membership term?

Clients have the option to renew for another term, or terminate membership. Many clients find that once their race is complete that they like to continue training due to the consistent feedback, and time effective methods used. This allows them to figure out what their new adventure will be! In the event you don’t want to renew membership your coach will downgrade and detach your Training Peaks account to a free Basic Training Peaks Account. This means that you get to keep all of your files and programming while you were coached by us. The account belongs to you. You can upgrade to a Premium Training Peaks Account on your own and regain the advanced analytics if you’d like.
