This program can be done at any time of the year for a massive boost in your cycling fitness. By purchasing the entire program, you have access to our HOP on Demand archive where you simply do 2 sessions per week starting at #1. We suggest 1-2 days between HOP sessions. The first half of the program is focused on strength and efficiency. The second half is focused on boosting threshold.
Here is what veteran HOPers have to say:
Chris Braese, Arlington, TN
"The House of Pain was the single best thing I did for my off season training and getting myself prepared for the upcoming racing season."
Brett Shanaman, Germantown, TN
"The House of Pain sessions, and BPC coaching in general, have been key in my progression as a cyclist over the past three years. I'm a stronger and smarter rider and a better all-around athlete, and I stay motivated to train even when life gets hectic."
HOP FAQ
Each workout is focused on increasing functional threshold power and efficiency through manipulation of cycling specific cadence, body position, pedal stroke, and mental focus. Basically, you will become a more powerful and efficient cyclist. We focus mostly on cycling efficiency early on in the program, and then we move to more intense threshold focused training later in the program.
Each session will also include 20-30 minutes of STRETCHING and CORE WORK! This is another part of the program you won’t find anywhere else. A strong core and body delivers more force to the pedal, and is less prone to normal cycling related injuries.Weak muscles have trouble activating, which is bad news for efficiency and maximal power. Some athletes lack so much strength we have seen huge jumps in power after just a few of our strength sessions.
We will be using a video conferencing solution called Zoom Cloud Meetings. They offer browser based video conferencing, as well as apps for your tablet and smartphone. It allows us to see your smiling (or pain) faces and also allows interaction with our coaches as well as with other HOP athletes. You can ask questions, motivate others, and even make fun of your buddies. Or you can just sit back and follow along. But all in all, we are all working and improving together.
