The Scale of Training: from a Biomechanical Perspective with Dr Russell MacKechnie-Guire

Thursday 17th October 2024 @ 19:00 HRS BST

The Scale of Training: from a Biomechanical Perspective The scale of training is a foundational system followed by riders and trainers worldwide. Often visualised as a pyramid, the system provides a step-by-step framework for riders to review and guide training. With slow motion footage, this 2-hour session will discuss the scale of training from both an evidence-based and biomechanical perspective. This session should guide and complement training approaches that are biomechanically and ethically robust.
