STRENGTH TRAINING FOR CYCLISTS - WITHOUT THE GUESSWORK 💪

Most cyclists spend all winter building strength...

Then summer arrives.

The gym sessions disappear.
The bike miles increase.
And by August, they're wondering why they feel weaker than they did in spring.

Don't let that be you.

I'm opening the doors to Ascend Accelerator, a 4-week strength training programme designed specifically for cyclists.

Starting Monday 15th June, you'll get:

✅ Full access to the Cycle Strength App
✅ Structured strength workouts for cyclists
✅ Options for different equipment setups
✅ Video demonstrations for every exercise
✅ Support from me throughout the programme

All for just £55.

Whether your goal is to climb faster, ride further, improve resilience, or simply feel stronger on the bike, this programme will help you build the foundations that most riders neglect.

Here's what Ed had to say:

"Working with Andy has been a revelation, and I wish I had started doing regular weight training years ago. I feel so much stronger when climbing, and my posture is improved; no more niggling backaches. His programmes are easy to do at home with the minimum of equipment, and he readily adapts them for what you have."

Places are limited, and we start on Monday 15th June.

The strongest cyclists this autumn won't be the ones who stopped strength training when the weather improved.

They'll be the ones who kept showing up.

You’ve probably been comparing yourself to other cyclists out there, right?

It’s easy to do when you’re feeling stuck. When progress seems slow. When you look around and think, “Why isn’t it happening for me this year?”

Let me tell you this: You don’t have to wait until next year, or the year after, to make huge progress.

You CAN be hitting higher average speeds, riding longer distances, and flying up every climb — and you can do it this SUMMER.

If you act fast, we can get you started before the end of this month. That’s right — we’re in prime time to build momentum NOW.

Right now, I’m working with 40 committed cyclists who are all gunning for big rides and events this year. They want exactly what you want:

To be faster.

To go longer.

To feel unstoppable when they push their limits.

And guess what? They’re making it happen. They’re juggling jobs, family, and busy lives — but they’re moving forward, seeing progress every week. They're gearing up to crush their events, knowing they’ve done the work to make this their best season yet.

And YOU can do the same.

This isn’t just about dreaming of a better ride. It’s about making it happen, NOW.

Crushed it 💥

Danny Hopkin didn’t just ride the Dragon Grand Fondo in 2025… he finessed it.

Coming 145th out of 1,100 riders and landing top 10% on the infamous Rhigos climb, he showed up stronger, faster, and more resilient than ever — and credited our training framework for the structure and consistency behind his performance.

Here's what he had to say...

"I started working with Andy in summer 2024. I had some experience of strength training in the past but unlike my cycling training, I wasn’t periodising. It’s practically impossible to isolate strength training benefits from those that come from consistent on-the-bike training. However, I think that’s where Andy’s support has helped the most…if you can be consistent because you’re not injured, overreaching or generally more comfortable on a bike, you will get faster. Strength training facilitates that. I’ve got some useful tools and a framework to work within moving forward and I intend to keep being consistent with my strength work."

Thanks for letting me be part of your journey, Danny.

This is exactly what we train for: real-world strength that translates to time in the saddle, injury-free riding, and bloody brilliant results!

The gym is calling this summer!
And not for beach muscles.
For POWER, PERFORMANCE, and LONGEVITY on the bike 💥

Here’s why strength training with Cycle Strength is a game-changer 👇

1️⃣ More Power — stronger legs = faster climbs, harder sprints
2️⃣ Fewer Injuries — stable joints and bulletproof muscles keep you riding
3️⃣ Endurance Gains — build muscle that actually lasts through big rides
4️⃣ Tailored Plans — no guesswork, just results that fit your goals
5️⃣ Stronger Everywhere — balance out your body, fix imbalances, ride better

I build personalised gym plans for cyclists who want to ride faster, feel stronger, and stay in the game for years to come.

"Do I sell the bike… or fight to keep riding it?"

Chris, 67, asked this in a cycling group last week.
The knees are creaking. The lungs are fading.
But the love for cycling? Still strong.

He’s got a stunning Trek Madone that he doesn’t want to let go… but also doesn’t want it sitting idle. Sound familiar?

Here’s the truth:
You don’t have to part with the bike.
You don’t have to push through pain.
And you definitely don’t have to give up on riding.

💪 With smart, age-appropriate strength training, you can:
• Support your knees and reduce pain
• Improve endurance through better posture & core strength
• Ride more confidently — even start cycling up the super steep bits again!

I coach riders in their 60s and 70s who thought their best days were behind them — until they trained smarter off the bike.

If you’re a cyclist over 40 looking to train smarter, get inside my free group for expert guidance and weekly coaching tips. Follow the Facebook Group link in my profile to join💪

❤️ Keep the bike. Keep the joy.
Futureproof your riding.

David is a 51-year-old cyclist from Aberdeen, Scotland, who first got into riding back in 2018.

What started with a Brompton quickly escalated into a full-blown road-cycling obsession. These days, David clocks 160 km a week commuting, mixes in structured Zwift training, and long weekend rides. He has his sights set on keeping up on group rides, dropping his mates in sprints and on climbs, and even tackling the Marmot or Etape du Tour this year.

Beyond the fitness, cycling plays a huge role in his mental health, something he openly acknowledges as a core driver behind why he rides.

After just seven weeks on Cycle Strength, David’s already leaner and his Zwift racing score jumped by over 100 points. He didn’t change anything else in his training — just added the strength work — and the results, in his own words, “speak for themselves.”

Who the hell am I?

Six years ago, I was working all the hours for The Man.
✅ Skipping meals
✅ Sleeping terribly
✅ Training hard but with ZERO structure
✅ Missing time with my kids
…and telling myself, “I’m fine.”

Then, in JULY 2020, I had a stroke.

No physical risk factors. Just stress, piled up over years.

Recovery was brutal.
I was doddering around the house. Confused.
Remembering things that never actually happened.

But that moment cracked everything open.
It gave me the chance to rebuild — properly.

Today, I train with purpose.
I coach with clarity.
And I live in a way that gives more to the people I care about:
My wife. My kids. My clients.

This isn’t just about cycling performance.
It’s about showing up better — on and off the bike.

👊 Thanks for being here and walking this road with me.

Want to hit goals that feel way out of reach right now?

Do what Colin did 👇

Ditch the all-or-nothing plans -
No more 4-hour slogs that leave you burnt out and feeling like a failure by week 2.

Train smart, not perfect -
Your plan should build serious results and still let you enjoy life — beers, birthdays, and all.

Get held accountable -
Left to your own devices? You’ll drift. Having someone in your corner = game changer.

Here’s the thing…

Colin’s a busy bloke. Work, family, weekends away — all of it.
He didn’t want to chuck £££ at lighter kit. He wanted to get fitter. Stronger. Faster.

So we built him a plan around his life. Not some cookie-cutter BS.
And it worked — like it has for 100s of riders I’ve coached so far.

🎯 Sportive?
🏔️ Mountain trip?
🚴‍♂️ Race series?

We build the plan around it — and make it WORK.

Most cyclists are wasting money on supplements. 🚴‍♂️💊

Every week there’s a new powder, drink, gel, mushroom extract or “performance hack” promising more watts, faster recovery and endless energy.

But what ACTUALLY works?

I’ve just written a full guide breaking down:
• Creatine
• Beetroot / nitrates
• Caffeine
• Whey protein
• Cordyceps
• Beta-alanine
• Electrolytes
…and more.

No fluff.
No influencer nonsense.
Just proper explanations of:
✅ How they work inside the body
✅ What actually helps endurance cyclists
✅ Which supplements are overhyped
✅ Risks and side effects
✅ What gives the best return on investment for serious amateur riders

Perfect if you’re trying to:
🔥 Increase FTP
🔥 Ride a faster century
🔥 Improve climbing
🔥 Recover better
🔥 Chase a KOM/QOM

The full guide is available now inside my private Facebook group.

Over-40 Cyclists: Are You Getting What You Need from Your Training?

How much money do you spend on your training?

Here’s the reality: Many cyclists invest in personal training but don’t get real, measurable results on their bikes. That means wasted time, money, and potential.

✅ Does your PT understand the demands of cycling, MTB, Road, TT, or Gravel?
✅ Do they tailor your strength training to improve power, endurance, and injury prevention?
✅ Are they experienced in coaching cyclists over 40 who need to train smarter, not harder?
✅ Do they offer support beyond that one session?

What if, for the same price (or less), you could have:

🔥 2-3 cycling-specific strength sessions per week—designed to complement your riding.
💬 Ongoing support & expert feedback—because progress doesn’t happen in a one-hour slot.
🎯 A program tailored to YOUR cycling discipline & goals—built around your event/race schedule.
🚴‍♂️ Access to a like-minded endurance community—because accountability drives success.
📚 The latest strength training strategies, research, and insights—no wasted time, just what works.
🔧 Guidance on your endurance training—so your strength work actually improves your riding.

And most importantly, a coach who is truly invested in your success—on and off the bike.

🚀 If you’re serious about getting stronger, faster, and more resilient in your 40s and beyond, I’ve got you covered.
