Cyclists, you’re not just endurance athletes.

Every pedal stroke requires you to produce force.

Whether you’re climbing, accelerating, closing a gap staying away in the break or sprinting, your ability to produce force in a number of different ways matters.

That’s why strength and power training belong alongside your endurance work.

Build your engine. But build the force producing qualities that support it too.

The gym isn’t the goal. The bike is.

Every session gets judged on one thing.

Can you still ride and perform the next day?

That’s why you need to take the Stimulus to Fatigue Ratio into a programming consideration.

Max adaptation, minimum fatigue.

You’re already carrying a ton of fatigue so adding an unnecessary amount on top that prevents the main thing being the main thing and your gym work absolutely pointless.

Exercise choice, volume, tempo, ex*****on. All tools that are important but they have to be manipulated accordingly depending on the time of year.

Because none of it matters if your sessions are constantly wrecking your legs for the bike.

If you’re ready to train smarter with performance on the bike at the forefront of every programming decision, comment or DM me the word UNSTOPPABLE to find out more 💪🏻

When thinking about trying to get a rider stronger and more stable for performance, it’s important to think globally when it comes to programming, rather than just in an isolated fashion.

Having a strong upper body, and in particular a strong back as a whole, is crucial.

By being globally stronger, you’ll have a body that is more stable on the bike and better at producing force into the pedals.

You’ll also be better at resisting the opposing forces coming back up through the body, helping you fatigue later into a ride.

Don’t neglect training your upper body. It will benefit you more than you think.

It’s not about being big, it’s about being strong and robust.

To better learn how you can look after yourself off the bike, comment or DM the word UNSTOPPABLE to find out more.

Moments like these 🖤

Time can really fly by when you live in another country.

So getting to enjoy some time together with my daughter over breakfast this morning made me realise life is pretty good.

I probably don’t stop and appreciate that enough as it’s easy to get caught up in what’s next….

Work, plans, goals, places to be, things you want to achieve.

So I’m grateful for these little moments 🖤
