OUR PHILOSOPHY

We've designed this programme on our Njinga training philosophy principles:

Our Train Smart focus is to strengthen key cycling muscles and core to improve your balance, stability, and power. Endurance, strength and speed bike sessions and deep stretch classes will also improve your cycling fitness, flexibility, and range of motion.

Our Fuel Smart principle will optimise your nutrition to help create a healthier lifestyle and, ultimately, improve your cycling performance. Supercharge your nutritional knowledge and enhance your energy and/or aid recovery with quick and simple recipes.

Our Think Smart philosophy will help you build your mental resilience and create a positive mindset, two things which are crucial to your cycling performance. They allow you to push harder, challenge your limits and persevere in the face of failure.

Train Smart: We’ll continue with strengthening your core and key cycling muscles with our daily core and S&C sessions, including a recommended weekly ride out that builds in progression from week one.

Fuel Smart: Week 2 will build on the nutrition fundamentals as we introduce carbohydrates and how best to incorporate them into your diet. You will also receive delicious weekly recipes to try.


Think Smart: 
We’ll be looking at a new method of strengthening your mindset with the use of affirmations.

RIDER TESTIMONIALS

Otso Huovinen

"Such a great programme to give you focus, help build strength and give you practical skills that you can use while cycling from nutrition and technique to useful tips on how to work on your mindset. My core is stronger than ever,  and  I've improved my cycling massively"

Marit Sormus

"Just completed this programme and reaping the benefits. It’s given me structure whilst working at home, I’ve felt part of a community and I’ve grown stronger and fitter - looking forward to the next one."


Fiona Inskip

“You either love turning the pedals and watching scenery whiz by, or you don’t. And if you love it, not much can sour you on the idea of riding your bike.”
