Cycling Pull Technique Intermediate Training Programme
Do you know how to improve your athletic performance for Cycling, whilst reducing the risk of injury? If not, then DS Performance training programs are for you.
DS Performance has created an exclusive series of sport-specific, strength & conditioning training programs that have to underpin, evidence-based training methods, which have been put in place to improve your performance for all ages and abilities. All programs have been designed to develop each specific performance variable through the progression of intensity and volume.
This Cycling strength and conditioning training program will focus specifically on pull technique training systems to:
- DS Performance training programs are designed to run alongside a skill/sport-specific based training plan. Our programs provide sessions for 3 days of training a week, to alternate between your skill/sport-specific training sessions.
- Our 12-week strength and conditioning training program are broken down into 2 x 6-week cycles, with a de-loading between the two training blocks. This will allow the body to recover, prepare you for the second training phase and reduce any risk of injury.
- Along with your training program this book contains a supporting guide to mobility training. This guide uses myofascial release, static stretching, and activation work to mobilize the major body parts used in training.
- Designed to reduce the risk of injury and avoid bad training habits through our sport-specific training programs. We provide training programs designed by ex-team GB athletes and coaching staff that have practical and applied experience through a wide range of individual and team-based sports.
- Our program has been developed to bring elite training methods to everyone, from all levels of sporting ability. Our mission is to make training programs utilized by professional athletes available to all sporting enthusiasts and performers.
The intermediate training level is for when you have conditioned the body to train at a higher intensity, but you are still not ready for the competition phase of training. This level of programmes bridges the gap between general conditioning and competition phase of training, to achieve your optimal performance.
The scrap and pull technique for your peddle stroke in the saddle is massive in cycling, because it develops your power output, but it also allows you to apply force to the peddle for a greater amount of time. This is why we have identified it as one of our key physical attributes that will develop your performance.
Our pull technique programmes are designed to develop not just you physical ability, but to increase your skill level in the saddle as well, so that you can apply force to the peddles for as much of the 360º revolution as possible. This in turn increases your efficiency in the saddle and allows you to have a smoother peddle action, instead of just stamping on the peddles.
The pull technique programmes work really well alongside all of our other training programmes, as skill development, efficiency of performance and your peddle stroke should be worked on and implemented as part of your training throughout your entire sporting calendar.
