Cycling 101 with Coach Erica


sooo the sun has started to shine and that mean only one thing for me, its time to get the bike out and truly be the seasonal cyclist that I am... so I thought i'd share some of my top tips for anyone who wants to get into cycling or just wants a little read..
- top tip number 1: FOOD IS EVERYTHING, honestly when you're out on a long ride and you're underfuelled it will honestly be the worst cycle of your life.. trust me before you leave the house throw a couple snacks in your back pocket & obviously hydration.
- if you're new to cycling and you've just brought your first two wheels (I hope you did your research before purchasing) I'd honestly take it into a shop and ask for a perfectional to help you set it up to fit your body best the last thing you want is to be uncomfortable on a 2+ hour ride. 
- as said please do your research before purchasing anything go and try out a few different bikes before you commit also each brand sizing is different so you could be a 51" frame with one brand and a 56" in another. Also accessories are very expensive so make sure you know what you want before you end up sending all your money
- unfortunately cycling is a kit heavy sport (unlike running), you need quite a lot of gear so be ready for all your great british pounds to be spent of padded lyrca shorts and very tight jerseys (I've added some gear that I personally really enjoy. p.s the socks are my favorite socks ever I wear them for everything)
- make sure you're ready before you go out, meaning have a route planned and uploaded to your bike computer so you don't get lost in the middle of nowhere, make sure you're dressed for whatever the weather condition is as it get cold on the bike and also hot, make sure you're fueled hydrated etc etc
- don't forget to pump up your tires as a key they should always be at around 100psi so before you head out make sure your tired are nice and pumped up. 
- lastly join a club or find some people who also share this interest as its more fun when you've got some pals with you and obviously HAVE FUNNNN if you don't enjoy it don't do it and cycling is a lot like running its consistency the more you do it the better you get

TEAM FORCE VELOCITY

 Time to meet Master Coach Tee - our leader!

COACH TEE:

What do you coach/teach?

I have been a trainer for 15 years and have taught a multitude of different modalities ranging from aerobics, dance, hiit, barefoot conditioning to strength & conditioning classes. I’ve always invested heavily into my own education as a fitness trainer as have always enjoyed the learning process and being able to instruct a variety of group exercise classes. I have also just began my journey to become a qualified yoga teacher too! I am also Master Trainer at Barry’s.  I coach/PT for athletic performance and help my clients to have more balance & structure in their training. 

What do you enjoy training for? 

I used to enjoy CrossFit and still dabble in it sometimes however this does interfere with my Triathlon training. I love the mix of cycling, swimming and running and I do my strength training to support these disciplines individually. 

What are you passionate about? 

My passion is in giving my clients a holistic fitness experience that they will remember in a positive way. I have always found that coaching running in particular has enabled me to do this. Creating a euphoric high through the music and helping my clients to push through to a place they might not have been able to get to on their own.
