ABOUT ME

Will Thompson BSc

I am a cycling coach based out of Yorkshire, providing science and experience based cycle coaching. I provide a well rounded coaching package through the mixture of a background in exercise physiology and experience racing cyclocross and road at an elite level with some racing on the continent for good measure.

My coaching style and philosophy stems from from the latest sport science findings and knowing the demands of the sport as an athlete myself.

My qualifications include:

Sport & Exercise Science (BSc) @ Leeds Beckett University.

Level 3 ABCC Cycling Coach.

Level 4 Strength & Conditioning Principles coach

TrainingPeaks University Graduate

TrainingPeaks Level 2 Accreditation

NSPCC Child Protection in Sport

TESTIMONIALS

My two children are both keen cyclocross and mountain bike racers. They have always trained with enthusiasm but in a rather hap-hazard way!. Since being coached by Will Thompson the training has taken on structure and purpose. Motivation to reach higher levels has increased, and after only a few weeks the performance in races has improved significantly. More importantly, my children are absolutely loving the experience!

Neil

I have found the coaching very good, I feel like my training has become very structured and give me something to go off week in week out which has helped me focus more having a set plan.

Izabel

I've been working with Will for 3 months now and by having a tailored training program my confidence continues to grow and the improvement in my results reflects this. Hope to push on further in 2024.
