Tier 3 · Bespoke 1-on-1

Bespoke strength & conditioning. Zero compromise.

The riders who need this aren't looking for a template. You are a road racer, crit specialist, or self-supported ultra-endurance athlete preparing for a milestone event like LEJOG. You have unique fatigue patterns, demanding race calendars, and severe time constraints. This is 1-on-1, high-touch strength and conditioning designed exclusively for you. No templates. No guesswork. Just direct, individual coaching to anchor your season.

Strictly capped at 15 active athletes to ensure unparalleled attention.

High volume breaks static templates.

When you are logging 10 to 15 hours a week on the bike, a generic gym sheet is a liability. You cannot blindly execute a heavy leg day when you have a critical threshold session the next morning. Static plans do not account for cumulative fatigue, race tapers, or the sheer volume of a serious rider's calendar.

Pure S&C Focus

This partnership solves the friction between the bike and the barbell. This is pure strength and conditioning—I do not coach your cycling. Your time in the gym is strictly planned to augment your riding, never to compete with or compromise it.

Collaborative Periodisation

If you have a cycling coach, I liaise with them directly to build your off-bike programme around their on-bike macrocycles. If you are self-coached, we establish those phase goals together.

Tailored feedback. Constant calibration.

This isn’t a PDF you download and run yourself. It is a dynamic, high-touch coaching system delivered directly through the TrainHeroic app, fully customised to your equipment, racing schedule, and physical status. Every single week, we scrutinise and adapt the plan based on how your body is responding to the sheer stress of your training block.

Bespoke Programming

I construct your dedicated training plan from scratch inside the TrainHeroic app. Every exercise, tempo, set, and target rep-in-reserve is tailored entirely to your personal needs, goals, injury history, and the equipment you have available.

Technique Analysis

You don’t have to guess if you’re executing correctly. Upload video clips of your lifts straight into our private in-app training feed. I analyse your mechanics, provide direct feedback, and make micro-adjustments so you lift safely and with high intent.

Dynamic Load Management

Training plans are not set in stone. If you have a poor night’s sleep, don’t feel well, or priorities change, we modify your targets. We calibrate the weekly training stress so you keep making progress without risking burnout or compromising on-bike training.

This is not for everyone.

1-on-1 coaching requires a massive investment of my time, which is why I am exceptionally selective about who I partner with. This tier is strictly capped at 15 active athletes. If you are just looking for a casual gym routine or a passive PDF, please look at Tiers 1 and 2.

Before applying, please make sure you meet the following baseline requirements:

You want Strength & Conditioning, not a cycling coach

You understand I do not manage your on-bike training or cycling plan. I am your S&C coach, and I am happy to work collaboratively with your cycling coach if you have one.

You are a dedicated rider

You are a road racer, crit specialist, or serious ultra-endurance athlete training for a milestone event. You have a highly demanding riding calendar and take your performance seriously.

You are ready to commit

You can dedicate at least 2 sessions per week to off-bike strength and conditioning, and you understand that building robustness takes consistent, month-on-month execution.

You can communicate honestly

You are proactive in logging your sessions, willing to upload video form checks, and ready to give honest feedback so we can calibrate your training around your fatigue.

You have the right environment

You have access to a well-equipped gym (barbells, rack, weights) or a serious home/garage setup. You aren't trying to do this with a single light dumbbell in your living room.

The road to partnership. No automated onboardings.

I do not take on athletes with a single-click purchase. To maintain a strict 15-rider cap and ensure a genuine high-performance fit, every partnership follows a deliberate, coach-led onboarding. No automated emails, no AI questionnaires - just direct communication to make sure your S&C programme integrates perfectly with your on-bike training.

Step 1

Submit Your Application

Fill out the brief digital form highlighting your riding discipline, milestone events, and current training setup. It takes about 3 minutes. I review every single submission personally to check if there is an immediate performance fit and if our active roster has an open spot.

Step 2

The Discovery Call (30 Mins)

If your application matches our criteria, we'll hop on a brief call. We will go over your racing calendar, current fatigue limits, and exactly how we would fit S&C around your on-bike stress. If you already have a cycling coach, this is where we discuss how I'll coordinate directly with them.

Step 3

Setup & Onboarding

Once we agree to move forward, I will build out your free athlete profile on the TrainHeroic app and custom-construct your first training macrocycle from scratch. We will establish your fatigue baselines, calibrate your primary lifting patterns, and get you moving on the app.

Step 4

Execute & Calibrate

The training begins. You lift, log your metrics, and upload video clips of your work. Every single week, we communicate inside the app, using your data and fatigue feedback to adapt and scale your S&C so it continuously protects, rather than competes with, your weekend rides.

High-touch coaching. Transparency upfront.

High-touch coaching requires deep involvement. I do not hide my pricing or make you guess what this retainer costs. To do this right, I can only manage 15 athletes at a time. The investment is straightforward, designed for riders who prioritise customised preparation over passive templates.If you are ready to anchor your training with dedicated S&C, review our available intake and submit your application. We will follow up to book your discovery call.

frequently asked questions

Answers to your questions.

Before we jump on a discovery call, here is exactly how the 1-on-1 partnership operates.

Do you sync my gym data with TrainingPeaks?

No. All strength and conditioning is delivered, tracked, and managed exclusively through TrainHeroic. Your cycling data stays in TrainingPeaks.

I don't want to clutter your cycling coach's dashboard, and this ensures we have a dedicated, focused space purely for building your physical robustness.

I already have a cycling coach. Will this conflict?

Absolutely not. The gym must support the bike, not compete with it. I will happily communicate directly with your cycling coach to ensure your heavy lifting blocks align seamlessly with their base phases and taper perfectly for your race days.

What if I am a self-coached rider?

If you manage your own time on the bike, we will establish your macrocycles and phase goals together during our discovery call and ongoing check-ins. I will build your S&C protocols to support your self-directed riding calendar.

How often do we communicate?

Communication is ongoing and continuous. Every time you log a session or upload a video form-check in TrainHeroic, and I review it. You get weekly feedback, form corrections, and dynamic schedule adjustments directly within the app based on your accumulated fatigue.

Is there a minimum commitment?

Yes. 1-on-1 coaching requires a 3-month initial commitment. It takes time to establish your baselines, build your mechanical technique, and force genuine structural adaptations. After the first 90 days, the partnership moves to a rolling monthly retainer.
