Does This Sound Like You?
- "I have limited time to train and don't know what the best sessions are or when to do them. I need high quality over quantity training that drives fast results"
- "I've hit a plateau training on my own on Zwift and other applications and not seeing improvements or any meaningful gains."
- "My demanding schedule means I need a flexible, holistic coaching approach (training, nutrition and mindset) to improve my performance both on and off the bike."
- "I want to really enjoy my cycling and need help to improve my stamina and endurance to cycle longer distances faster and more efficiently."
- "I want an experienced data-driven coach to keep me motivated, accountable, and on track and avoiding common training pitfalls"
- "I struggle to get my nutrition right and tend to suffer from fatigue and low energy"
- "I want a customised training plan that can be adapted in real time if something comes up while still giving me results if I only commit 3-5 hours a week."
- "I lack mental resilience on the bike and can ease off when things get hard. I need regular coach feedback."

Partner
"Seven weeks after starting with Njinga I rode up Col d' Aspin and Col du Tourmalet and did not die. Njinga made this possible by rigorous attention to detail and the "ah ha" realisation that pacing, understanding your metrics, nutrition, hydration(!) and regular training can make you dominate what might once have been insurmountable.
The whole experience of working with Togo exceeded my expectation"

Frequently Asked Questions
IS THIS LEVEL OF COACHING SUITABLE FOR ME?
Yes. Our VIP cycling coaching is 100% customisable to all levels as we work to your own training zones, ability and goals.
WHAT IS INVOLVED IN THE FREE DISCOVERY CALL?
In this initial (no obligation) consultation, we will assess your current training regime, what your strengths and weakness are, any goals you have and the available time you have to commit each week to training. We then evaluate if we are a good fit and if our training solutions will help you. If so, we will devise a fully customised training package to drive you to peak performance.
HOW IS THE COACHING DELIVERED?
We offer a combination of in-person and online options. If you are not local, all your coaching can be covered remotely with regular check-ins on Zoom. For those riders who are able to attend in-person sessions in SW London, we can offer a combination of both in-person and online.
WHAT EQUIPMENT WILL I NEED?
An indoor trainer. Examples include Wahoo Kickr V5 or Core, Tacx Neo or Flux and Elite Suito to name a few. Alternatively, you can use an indoor bike that can project cadence and power (same applies for the indoor trainer). Examples include Wattbike Atom, Wattbike Nucleus, Wattbike Trainer/Pro and Wahoo Indoor bike, etc. A Peloton Indoor bike will not work as their data is protected unless you put power pedals on their indoor bike.
You will also need a laptop or tablet to download our training software, ANT+ receiver, comfortable cycling kit, water bottle, heart rate strap and a sweat towel.
WHAT SOFTWARE DO YOU USE?
We use training software that allows you to monitor your real time power or power to weight data during any timed intervals within a training session. This enables you to accurately track your progress by setting precise benchmarks to maintain and improve upon.
HOW LONG IS THE COACHING FOR?
This is dependent on your specific goals and training needs. Our shortest package we offer is a minimum commitment of 2 months but we have riders we have been working with for over 2.5 years. It really comes down to you and your personal coaching objectives. The more investment you put in the greater your results.
WHAT ARE THE COSTS?
Again, this depends on your individual requirements as we create a tailored package that will get you to your goals the fastest. Once you have had your free discovery call, we will advise you of your best options. Packages start at £499 a month.
HOW MANY HOURS A WEEK DO I NEED TO COMMIT TO?
We suggest a minimum of 5-6 hours per week to start seeing results. However, we know how busy life gets so not only can we customise this based on your individual schedule, we can also tweak it week on week as your demands change, making sure you are always getting the biggest return with the sessions you can complete.
14 DAY PEACE OF MIND PROMISE
If for any reason you are not happy or don’t enjoy your coaching experience, you have the option to terminate the coaching agreement and pay pro rata for what you have completed so far in the first 2 weeks only. Any coaching sessions that have been completed will be charged at the full rate per hour. Rates are £199 per hour depending on service (except deep stretch £149ph)
