Ken uses INSCYD testing and analysis to understand your personal physiology and identify the key areas to focus on, so you get the most from your training.
Testing gives you a clear starting point and shows exactly how you are improving. Results are used to set your personal training zones, so every session is done at the right effort.
INSCYD goes beyond a single FTP number. It builds a full metabolic profile that shows how your body produces energy, so training can target exactly what will make you faster.
INSCYD testing can be done either locally with blood lactate sampling or remotely with a Power Performance Decoder (PPD) test using your own power meter. Repeat tests show how your physiology is changing over a training block.
Ken has been fitting bikes for over 30 years. He has seen countless trends and fads come and go, and has built a practical approach that focuses on what works for each rider.
You get more than a set of numbers. Ken explains why each change matters and how to keep refining your position as your riding develops.
Whether you are riding time trials, sportives, Ironman triathlons or just for fun, Ken can help with your position.
I'm a new cyclist who got a road bike. I had a bike fit performed and I would totally recommend. We were able to dial me into a comfortable and natural position on the bike, which has helped reduce back pain and numb hands!
Ken was great! Clearly very knowledgeable but straight to the point with the issues I had. I appreciate that as my last bikefit was double the price and a complete shambles. Thank you Ken 😊
