Coaching package process

 

Your goals identified

If you don't have a goal and just want to improve your fitness, then you can be guided as to what areas you want to work on. If you have an event you want to be in your best shape for, then your coach will aim to look at what the demands of your outcome goals are, either from your power files or  Best Bike Split course and power modelling

TrainingPeaks goals

Training plan customisation

Based on your historical power data and coaching experience; a set of realistic yet challenging specific key process goals based around your unique physiology will then help be set a pathway towards guiding you to achieve your main fitness or event goals. Your coach will also aim to respect your time, communicating with you to plan your workouts around your schedule

TrainingPeaks ATP

Annual training plan

Your long term periodised training volume structure is next to be established and your coach will use the TrainingPeaks annual training plan (ATP) to optimally balance this, building on experience of what has been effective in the past, aiming for you to hit your highest form when it matters most to you. If you complete an ATP with your cycle coaching services; you will receive a full season review which also guides your next ATP

TrainingPeaks workout

Full custom workouts

Each workout in your training plan is posted directly to your existing or newly set up TrainingPeaks account that is linked to your coach's account. Here, you will be able to preview workout steps and power targets that can easily be synced to your bike computer or indoor cycling app. Your intervals will be customised to your unique power profile beyond just from a percentage of your FTP

Real coach feedback

Once you upload workouts; you will receive regular feedback and analysis on your completed training. The more communication you have with your coach, the more relevant the guidance will be and the more effectiveness of your training plan will evolve.

Also coached the New Zealand under 19 road cycling squad. My achievements as an athlete include:

'As an athlete; reaching the highest level of racing possible pushed me the most and I got the opportunity to race alongside pro riders. As a coach; driving to understand how each rider is different to create the most effective training is what inspires me. I embraced the digital revolution with power meters and uploaded workouts in endurance coaching before it was popularised and that has left me with more experience in coaching remotely than most. CPT Cycle Coaching was established right at the start of my coaching journey too and having my own business with my own principles and workflow has allowed more creative room in coaching to the best of my unique skill set'

 

 

'Each pedal stroke, each climb, and every goal achieved was made possible by your guidance, your unwavering support, and your dedication. We traversed the Strade Bianche together, challenged ourselves in circuit races, and overcame obstacles that seemed insurmountable. Your professionalism and commitment ensured that every training session was a step toward success. But above all, it was your ability to inspire and motivate that made this journey unique and unforgettable'

CONSULTATION

 

A potentially useful solution to receive some coaching advice without an ongoing training plan. Each Consultation includes a 1 hour video call reviewing progress on your training load and power, recommendations for your future training and answers to any questions you have. All details covered on call are summarised into a detailed email. Whether you have never been coached before, if you have used cycle coaching services previously or if you have a training plan but do not have a coach; a Consultation may be the perfect cycle coaching service for you to quickly check if you are heading in the right direction. If you have a question about Consultations; just fill out the contact form above. Or if you are sure you want a cycle coaching Consultation, then you can book one below where you will be prompted through each part of the process to get started

 
 
 

PRIVATE TRAINING CAMPS

 

This could be the perfect option for you if you want to give your fitness an extra boost with more riding and improved recovery by taking a break from your regular life, if you have specific areas of your cycling skills that you would like some expert guidance on, if you want an adventure in a new location, or make the camp a goal event to train towards; Private Training Camps can be one of these or all of the above! The choice is yours. You can book a Private Training Camp just for yourself with totally individualised coaching, or get a group of your cycling friends together. We can put together a package for you using our many years of experience running training camps or add in as much of your own choices as you like. Your camp can be either for Road or MTB. You can choose your own location, or the camp can be where we have held Training Camps before in Gran Canaria or at coach Richard's location on the edge of Forest of Dean on the English/ Welsh boarder which is a haven for both of these forms of cycling
