Setting Goals for the New Year
|
Happy New Year Reader! Hope you have had an amazing holiday season and are excited about whats to come in 2025. Personally and professionally, I have some big things planned which I will be working on through the winter which I plan to release closer to spring. What do you hope to accomplish in 2025? New year's is always a time of reflection and planning and often goal setting. I want to help you achieve your goals and dreams. One piece of advice I always give is to look deeper than just the final accomplishment of your goal. You see, the goal, the outcome is the carrot on the end of the stick. It's what motivates you to work towards it because it excites you. What I see many miss is creating goals and plans on how you accomplish the goal. Want to finish a bucket list event like the BC Bike Race? Or taking a step onto the podium at the Canadian Enduro League? Ask yourself, what will it take to get there?
Setting up a plan to build habits which you will instinctively follow when your motivation drops, or distractions and saboteurs pop into your path to success. This may look like scheduling 2 strength workouts and 2 endurance workouts every week with a goal of completing 90% of these scheduled workouts. Imagine, 4 months from now, how much stronger, fitter and faster you will be on your bike if you complete 28 strength workouts and 28 endurance workouts. Would you like some help with goal setting, program building and what will be best for you to work on to reach your goals? I invite you to schedule a free 30 min call to get some insight on what your program should look like to reach your goals.
I am briefly re-opening MTB Strength Club enrolment briefly. A few of you expressed interest in starting in January. The Start date is Monday, January 6th. There are only 1 or 2 more spots available in each session so the group size stays at a coachable level. Click the button below to get the details and sign up!
Please reach out with any questions you have about the program. All the best in the new year!

Hey Crew, I’ve been hitting the pump tracks lately with my kids, and they’ve been quietly dropping some serious wisdom. Not about gearing or trail tactics, but about mindset. When they want to learn something - manuals, hopping a curb, railing a corner - they just go for it. Over and over. No hesitation, no overthinking. They try, they fall, they laugh, and they try again. There’s no fear of “getting it wrong.” It’s just play. What if we brought that same mindset to our own skill sessions?...
The off-season is where the work happens. The in-season is where it all comes together. But making the transition between the two? That’s where a lot of riders get tripped up. You’ve put in months of strength training, mobility work, and structured intervals—now it’s time to get back to full-on riding without losing your progress or burning out too soon. If you’ve ever felt sluggish when you first get back on the trails or found yourself overtraining as the season progresses, you’re not...
Zone 2 training has amazing benefits to the health and performance of mountain bikers. Zone 2 training refers to training you do below your aerobic threshold where your body i primarily using oxygen to break down fat as an energy source. It is often referred to as long steady slow training at a pace you can maintain all day long. The benefits include building more mitochondria (the powerhouse organelle) in your muscle cells, increased time and speed at lower intensity, delays the usage of...
