Plan your training into your diary
Plan your training into your diary
Finding the time to balance cycling and the rest of your life can be a challenge. You may work long hours, run a busy household, have a partner and children and also want to ride your bike.
The first thing is to sit down and conduct a ‘lifestyle’ audit – this sounds very complicated but it is simply working out how many hours a week you have available to train. I do this with all of my clients, we work out the available training time and we start from there.

Then, look at your week and figure out how to organise your training with other commitments – can they be combined? Recovery and endurance rides make great commutes to and from work, is it possible to ride to the location of a family day out whilst they take the car?
You can also invite friends or your partner on your recovery rides – this will create some quality time whilst making sure you keep in that slow recovery pace!!
