I rode back into Sheffield still feeling surprisingly OK in the legs. Feel much stronger and conditioned now, after a winter of Skyhook
I felt comfortable the whole ride, never physically stressed, and enjoyed it enormously. When people ask me how I did, I always mention that I prepared properly and a key part of that was the sessions at Skyhook.
[After] the [bike] fit last week. I did my 30 mile commute yesterday and for the first time I can remember in the last 2 years had no pain in the knee. I just wish I had seen you before.
The personal coaching [name removed] has undertaken, has made an obvious difference to his performance on the bike. He was by far the strongest rider, especially on the hills. This demonstrates that a dedicated training program and a personal coach, do make a difference. Money well spent!
In June I completed my first Ironman 70.3 event, which was undoubtedly made much easier as a result of training at Skyhook, and I really must thank Steve for his support and encouragement. I will definitely be back later in the year to see what further improvements we can make
I think the training has helped considerably. I don’t think I could have achieved even my normal level of fitness if I’d had to rely on opportunities to ride on the road in all the difficult weather we’ve been having. And then the intervals take it to another level. Thank you.
Looking forward to learning more about myself when the report comes through and then we can look at what I can do to get stronger!
Many thanks... it was the closest I've come to the feeling of being on the road without actually going [outside]
Training on my race bike with the power-based CompuTrainer added much needed variation to my indoor training. I found [this] much more useful than just training to heart rate. The programs were both challenging and certainly made the time pass very quickly.
Using the CompuTrainer early in the year was a great way of establishing my pre-season threshold power, and has given me a baseline against which I can measure to my improvements in power.
This was my first experience of using this indoor training technology. There is a very positive road feel and when the [course] gradient goes up or down, you are very aware as you engage your gear range. I found the whole experience a good workout, without the usual "home trainer" feel. A no brainer really! I recommend the experience.
About
Us
Skyhook Coaching Services was born from the experience gained by Founder and Director of Coaching, Steve Harrop, whilst living, training and racing for several years in the USA.
Skyhook Coaching Services provides a holistic approach to training for the committed cyclist. Centred on the needs of you the rider, we ensure that you can develop those elements necessary to attain your cycling goals. Here, rider development is built upon a solid understanding of science and exercise physiology, combined with tried and tested coaching principles. Using state-of-the-art, computer-controlled cycle training equipment we deliver time-efficient, power-based training programs that produce measurable results.
Skyhook Coaching Services provides the ideal solution to help each committed rider, whatever their level, to attain their cycling goals.
Training & Coaching Services
In the real world we all ride real bikes, and this is where Skyhook Coaching Services will deliver real benefits to real riders. At your next event, you expect to perform on your own bike, so why would you train on anything else? Our indoor training studio removes the elements that can make efficient and consistent training so difficult out on the road, and is perfectly designed to accommodate the rider who wants to train on his or her own bike.
There are many people who think their level of cycling is not “good enough” to benefit from coaching. Habits can be hard to break, so developing good habits early on is clearly more beneficial than getting into bad habits, and then working so hard to change them. A good coach can help us recognise those areas for development and help to put us back on the right track. So whatever your goal, we’d love to hear from you, and let’s talk about how we can help.
Support Services & Partners
Here at Skyhook Coaching we take great pride in the expert services that we provide directly to our athletes. However, we also recognise that there are times where our members will want to make use of even more specialised support, and so to meet this need we collaborate with a number of carefully selected partners.
