Coaching Programs, Precision Cycle Coach, a cycling coach, offering training and coaching services for cyclist and bicycle racers. A smarter way to train.

PCC is not your normal coaching service, there are no "standard, ultra or premium" coaching options here. If you are looking for a coach to talk to you 10 minutes twice a month and spit out generic cookie-cutter plans, you should keep looking. There is only one way, in our opinion to properly coach a cyclist, the correct way. We devote all of our energy into making sure all Athletes receive as much time and energy necessary to reach their goals. Therefore we only offer one coaching option.

We do not put time limits on the amount of correspondence you are allowed. In fact, we want to hear from you as much as possible. The more information and feedback we have, the better the results will be. There are no conventional "training plans" that you will receive on the first of the month with a list of workouts to do for that month. Those methods are ok in theory but simply dont work in real life. Workouts are decided upon and prescribed 1-5 days in advance and are based around your schedule and recent training data while following an outline designed with both log and short-term goals in mind.

Your program will begin with a comprehensive interview and set up. This may take several days and plenty of phone and e-mail time. Athletes close enough are welcome to drive to central western North Carolina and meet with us in person.

We recommend ALL of our Athletes begin with a comprehensive, detailed bike fitting, a service we can preform for you, or we can recommend a competent fitter in your area.

We use the Training Peaks service which is an excellent way for us to interact with all of our Athletes. It allows you to easily upload your powerfiles to the internet for our review. You will receive your workouts via email or you can look on the website for them. The use of Training Peaks allows us to easily and efficiently adjust your upcoming workouts.

We will ask that you report back the details of your workouts/races via upload to your Training Peaks account. This, once again, will give us valuable data and feedback and help us to constantly refine your workouts.

We will provide you with nutrition recommendations and advice for both on and off the bike, as well as helping you decide on the best supplements, gels and drinks for you.

We will review your races/events with you both before and after, and go over performance, strategy, goals, warm-ups, recovery and results. We will help you dissect your performance and see where you could have improved.

My overall goal is simple: to do whatever it takes to help you become a better athlete. I am very dedicated to this cause and diligent in my efforts and I am confident you will be pleased with the program. Ready to get started? Contact me or click the "Get Started" link.
