We guarantee you'll work harder and smarter in our LIVE coach led group training programmes and get results. Take a look at some of the rider improvements we have seen on our signature programmes.
We guarantee you'll work harder and smarter in our LIVE coach led, motivational environment and get results. Here is why:
Each LIVE session is lead by a British Cycling coach (and competitive cyclist) who has extensive coaching experience, providing live feedback on your performance and giving you valuable insights and ways to improve in real time.
We use training software that allows you to monitor your real time power or power to weight data during timed intervals within a session. This enables you to accurately track your progress by setting precise training benchmarks to maintain and improve upon each week.
Training on your own is hard! Our clients consistently say that when training with other riders and being pushed and motivated by our coaches, they produce at least 20% more power. Our programmes guarantee performance gains or your money back.
Everyone benefits from the team spirit, encouragement and support of a great community. No matter what level of rider you are or whether you are joining us in person at the Njinga Lab or online from home we commit 100% to ensure YOU achieve your target.
