GCH Durable Cyclist
A 4-Week Strength & Mobility Reset for Riders Who Want
to Build Their Engine Without Burning It Out
You ride regularly. You care about getting stronger. You don’t want to live in the gym.
This free 4-week program is designed to introduce cyclists to simple, structured strength work that supports your riding — not competes with it.
Who This Is For
This program is for you if:
You ride 2–5 days per week
You want to feel stronger on climbs
You get tight hips or a stiff low back after rides
You’ve tried strength training but never stuck with it
You want structure without overcomplication
You care about riding well for the next 10 years, not just this season
If that sounds like you — you’re in the right place.
What Makes This Different
This is:
2 simple strength sessions per week
30–40 minutes each
Bilateral foundations first
Progression only after consistency
Mobility and recovery built in
This is not:
A random gym workout
A bodybuilding split
A “destroy yourself” program
A collection of flashy single-leg circus moves
What You’ll Experience in 4 Weeks
Inside the program:
🧠 Pre-session check-ins to help you train with awareness
🛠 Foundational strength patterns that support your riding
🔄 Mobility work that actually translates to the bike
📉 Recovery tools that help you absorb training
📈 A simple structure that fits around your rides
You’ll also get access to my coaching app, so you can experience how I structure training and communicate with athletes.
This is not just a workout plan.
It’s an introduction to how I coach.
My Philosophy
Cyclists often chase intensity.
More miles. More intervals. More TSS.
But fitness doesn’t grow from pressure alone.
It grows from repeatable effort, recovery, and structure that fits your life.
I believe:
Consistency beats hero workouts
Strength supports the engine
Recovery is part of training
Harmony > burnout
If that resonates, we’ll likely work well together.

What Happens After 4 Weeks?
At the end of the program, you’ll have options:
Continue building general strength and durability
Move into structured year-round Athlete Mode
Begin Specialty Mode if you have a race or event goal
There is no obligation.
But if you find that you enjoy structure and want guidance, I offer ongoing coaching designed specifically for cyclists who want to train intelligently.\
A Different Approach to Coaching
Coaching at Grit City Health is built around YOU. Your goals, your schedule, and your real life! Rather than forcing everyone into the same structure, I use a mix of tools and formats to meet you where you are and support consistency over time.
Depending on your needs, coaching may include:
TrainingPeaks for endurance-focused athletes
Trainerize for general fitness, foundational strength, and habit-building
Paper-based 6-week calendars for athletes who prefer a simple, distraction-free plan
No matter the format, every plan is customized to your goals and lifestyle, with an emphasis on clarity, adaptability, and long-term progress.
Rather than charging $200–$300 per month for unlimited access you may not need, my coaching model is designed to be flexible and intentional.
This approach allows you to:
Keep monthly costs accessible
Add deeper support when it’s actually useful
Pay for coaching time intentionally, not passively
I’m building relationships — not transactions. My goal is for athletes to feel supported, not obligated, and confident that their coaching adapts as their needs change. If you’re unsure which option fits best, I’m always happy to help you decide.
