Cycling Canada releases physiological assessment materials for coaches
Cycling Canada has developed a new set of physiological assessments to answer the questions that coaches and riders often face, in consultation with coaches and physiologists from all cycling sports. We have developed these new protocols for the National team, and would like to share them with anyone in our system who is interested in using them. If a coach is working with an athlete who they think could make the National Team, being able to send results/information to the National Coach in a way that can be compared directly to data we have on internationally-successful riders will help show their potential.
Data can be collected from field data or lab testing, with more detail captured as the rider progresses up the development pathway.
Our next steps will be to translate these documents into French, and to create a database that people can use to upload results and generate reports on their athletes, if they chose.
