The Talent Team Model • What are Talented Young People doing? Racing! • When are they doing it? All year round!! • What are the demands of the events? “...dodgy, scary, random...” Highly skilled “...intense, changes of pace...” Fast We therefore need to develop highly skilled, fast, tactically aware, brave, hard-working bike riders

Planning and Prescribing Training What does an ‘average’ week look like? • “Periodised weeks” Based on the same principles we would apply to senior riders • Longer/Endurance rides • Roller sessions • Turbo sessions • Short Intense sessions with Race orientation • Skills sessions • Racing
Under 12’s • One or two club sessions per week • Plus another bike ride, if they want to (maybe with family or friends/when the weather is good) • A race most weeks • Riding the bike when they want to
Under 14’s • A couple of club sessions (if available) • A club run or group ride • A race or two every week (developing as they grow) • Second year starts to need to train – maybe for six months • (having a loop, getting on the turbo once or twice per week, getting out when they don’t always want to)
Under 16’s • 7 - 9 hour per week • 5 – 8 races per month • A mix of club sessions, group rides/club runs, solo training • loops, turbo and rollers • Volume in the school holidays • Second year would start to ride to races, etc
