Based in the Lake District
April 12-18th 2010 at Arnside YHA.
Join Terry Bell and Dave Lloyd for our second annual training camp held in the beautiful and stunning south Lake District , for 7 days of superb preparatory training and learn under expert tutors how to tackle its most famous mountain passes including Hardknott and Wrynose passes from both sides plus the `Struggle`and numerous other 30% climbs,many little known. The camp is designed to help endurance athletes of all disciplines and abilities to prepare scientifically for the 2010 season. The coaching team will teach you how to identify your strengths and weaknesses, how to develop a periodization plan and then how to improve the results of each phase of your training. Each athlete will be offered the chance to go through a series of personal physical and bio-mechanical tests that will set a individual benchmark for future development. The tests will help each athlete better understand baseline abilities and then use this information, along with past data to dramatically improve on previous performances.
We also hope to run through some of the latest cycling improvement
techniques such as EPOC and its effect on your training to try to find
the `holy grail`for athletes ,the near perfect optimum training
plan,personalised for you .
If you wish you will be able to consult with Terry or Dave pre camp
and start early on finding your own personal weaknesses and strengths
and by the time you arrive at the camp be operating at a much higher
performance level.
We will also be able to offer athletes who attend the chance to talk to
an expert on Metabolic typing and again start to understand the
effects that an individual/personalised nutritional program can have
on your performance.
We will also be able to offer you a gas analysis test to establish your own Vo2 max and AT levels.
We will cover some of the mysteries of using power tools and the
`magic` incredient`s called Wko software and ATP [ANNUAL TRAINING
PLANNING]mind blowing tools at reasonable cost and one of the Uk guru`s
on hand to ask questions too.
So dont buy another bike or super wheels until you have consulted with
us first to see if there is more cost effective and productive method/s
available.
Remember Dave and Terry have over 100 years of racing experience between them ,attendandtaptheirvastknowledge
