Masters
Cycling Coaching for Riders Over 40
After a big focus on my own racing from
a youth to a senior rider I find myself as a busy Dad in his 40's
with a business to manage and a wife and young child. As a masters
cyclist I know how important making the most of limited time
availability is so training smarter is even more important than for a
younger rider. Masters cyclists want to improve without sacrificing
family life and work, so consistency and that all important, and too
often limited, recovery is a higher priority than hitting 10h plus
training weeks.
Get
Faster After 40 Without Training More
As a masters cyclist, it's even more important to ensure that your training is suited to your goals, available time,
physiology and recovery. At Custom
Cycle Coaching, we pride ourselves on the personal approach, from our
initial detailed questionnaire and consultation, we use years of
experience and science-based coaching to keep your training optimal
and push past plateaus and prove that your best days are not
necessarily behind you! Whether you're an experienced rider or just
getting into it, you will value our efficient feedback and
adjustments to keep you accountable and on track, whatever work and
family life throws at you.
Why
Training Needs to Change as You Get Older
Aging doesn't mean you need to slow
down. As you get older, the important thing is understanding your own
individual responses to training, recovery challenges and life
stresses and adapting your training to that. A rider in their 20's
can cope better with a few late nights, sub-optimal nutrition and recovery. We understand that a masters cyclist needs
individualised training to their circumstances and time availability.
A retired rider in their 60's might be able to train more than a 40
year old with young children and a busy job but the composition of
that training is vital.
As we age, injury prevention and keeping healthy as well as fast become even more important. Strength training and nutrition work in tandem to help maintain consistent training and optimum performance. Let us help you beat plateaus in your
performance and create a bespoke coaching plan that fits your goals
and lifestyle.
