Strength Training

We partner with Dorian Adam at Embark Fitness to provide year-round strength training and winter indoor cycling for our team.

  • For riders ages 13 – 18 who want improve fitness, athletic ability and durability.
  • WHAT: Periodized strength & endurance program that meets athletes where they are and measures improvement.
  • WHY: Once riders are training multiple days per week for many months it’s important to balance cycling adaptations with other movements; plus it’s an educational environment where we discuss science, nutrition, training habits and help riders reach their fitness goals.
  • REQUIRED: Must be ready to do challenging physical work, follow instructions in the weight room, and be self-motivated to improve.
