Goal

Hold a faster position

Build the strength and mobility to hold a lower, more aerodynamic position for longer — so a smaller CdA becomes a position you can actually sustain. Cycling-specific S&C in Soho, London.

Aerodynamics & CdA

At speed, air resistance is the single biggest force a cyclist fights — which is why the Coefficient of Drag Area (CdA) matters so much. You can buy a faster position with a bike fit, but holding it for hours, while still producing power, is a physical problem. That is where off-bike work comes in.

We build the posterior-chain strength, core stability, and hip and thoracic mobility that let you get low and stay there — comfortably, repeatably, and without losing power or wrecking your back. Aerodynamics is treated as something you train your body to sustain, not just a position you adopt for a photo. The work is periodised around your riding and progressed sensibly, and it is coached by people who understand the speed dynamics involved.

What's involved

  • An assessment of your mobility and the limiters stopping you holding a low position
  • Hip, thoracic, and ankle mobility work to make an aerodynamic position available to you
  • Posterior-chain and core strength so you can hold that position under load and over time
  • Position-specific work so getting low does not cost you power or comfort
  • Progressive overload and periodisation around your key rides and events

Common
questions

Is not aerodynamics just about the bike and a bike fit?

Equipment and a good bike fit set the position; your body has to hold it. Getting low is one thing — staying low for hours while still producing power is a physical challenge of strength, mobility, and endurance. That is the part off-bike S&C addresses, so the aerodynamic gains you have paid for are ones you can actually sustain.

What is CdA, in plain terms?

CdA, or Coefficient of Drag Area, is a measure of how much aerodynamic drag you and your bike create at speed. The lower it is, the less power you need to go a given speed. Much of it comes down to your position — and holding a low, efficient position is a strength and mobility problem we can train.

Will mobility work help me get more aero?

Often, yes. A lower position is frequently limited by hip, thoracic, or ankle mobility, not willingness. Building controlled, usable range in the right places makes an aerodynamic position available to you, and pairing it with the strength to hold it is what turns a position into a sustainable, faster one.
