About Me |
|
| Cycling began for me watching the Tour de France age 4, and wanting to emulate the great hero’s. I started racing age 12 with a mission to one-day win the Tour de France. Since this time I have excelled at the sport, representing my country, winning prestigious races. These have included the Junior Tour of Wales, the Junior Divisional Road Race Championship and the final round of the under 23’s national series, the Chase Classic, under 23 Dover International Cyclo Cross.
At the senior level of the sport I finished 6th in the National Road Race Championship twice and have proved my ability to ride with some of the top riders in the world. I have dedicated the last 5 years to realising my cycling goals. CLARKES TRAINING TIPSTraining is tough it is hard to know what to do without the help of a full time coach. I try to pass on some of my wisdom in the hope that it will help you to make the best of your session. Coming out of the winter having done a lot of long rides, well you will have a good base it is normal to have a lack of maximal power and an ability to work at a high percentage of your heart rate your threshold wattage will be down the session I have for you will help you work on this so when the break goes you will be in it not looking around as everyone seems to be riding away from you. Threshold wattage session Start your session with a 30 min warm up pedalling quickly at 100 to 110rpm with you heart rate at about 65% of your max. Ride for 10 mins as hard as you can look to ride at around 90% of your max heart rate it is best to start gradually and build in to the interval over the first minute. Take 10mins recovery at 60% of your max heart rate Ride as hard as you can for 3 mins look to ride over 90% of your heart rate and then take 3 mins recovery repeat this 3 minute interval two more times. After, finish by riding the rest of your session at 65% of max rate. The time you ride after the intervals should be determined on your level and the time you have free can be anything from 15mins to 3 hours if you are of elite level. COACHING I offer a full coaching service over the internet to help you get the best from your cycling if you are interested please contact me for more information. I also offer fitness and nutrition programmes for anybody from beginner level to a more advanced level of fitness, whether it be in cycling or any other sport or even just people looking to get fit and loose weight. I am a qualified coach in over 10 different sports and have qualifications in nutrition, physiology and many different aspects of sports science.If you wish to contact me for any reason, be it sponsorship interest, training-nutrition plans or just to say hi you can message me via myspace or email me directly on david2clarke@hotmail.co.uk I look forward to speaking to you. |
