What is the athlete Analysis?
The Athlete Analysis is a very valuable tool. Simply send us some video footage of you cycling and one of our team will provide you with feedback about your style. Set yourself up on a trainer and provide us with the following cycling footage from the front, back and side:
-basic pedalling
-accelerating to a sprint
-getting up out of the saddle and then standing cycling. 20 seconds in each position is all we need.
We will then provide you with feedback on your technique and your challenge then is to use Pilates to help you to improve on any areas that need work. For example, if it appears that your pelvic stability on the bike needs work, then pay extra attention to achieving pelvic stability in all of your workouts. This feature is available if continue with your membership after the free trial period has ended.
How can I measure my improvements?
We recommend you establish a performance benchmark, which you can compare with over the coming weeks. So, before you start anything we would like you to conduct the following test.
Select a familiar route that you might cycle on a regular basis and determine the average speed achieved over the last 3 trips. If you don't have this information, identify a ride that you could use and then record the information over the coming days. We suggest you complete the ride alone, as riding in a group can affect the outcome.
