• All routines provide detailed exercise instructions, including videos. 
• All workouts and exercises are prescribed individual resistance loads and output levels (based on the weight class you select). 
• Once online training is purchased, customers will be required to create a membership account (no charge), then they will have access to their individual online training as follows: 

4 Week: Once training is scheduled to begin (you set start date), then you will have 5 weeks to complete (we provide 1 extra week due to potential delays in completion). Once expired, you will be required to purchase additional online training to continue (various add-on online training options will be offered to 4 week online training customers once your training is completed).

8 Week: Once online training is scheduled to begin (you set start date), then you will have 10 weeks to complete (we provide 2 extra weeks due to potential delays in completion). Once expired, you will be required to purchase additional online training to continue (various add-on online training options will be offered to 8 week online training customers once your training is completed).

12 Week: Once online training is scheduled to begin (you set start date), then you will have 15 weeks to complete (we provide 3 extra weeks due to potential delays in completion). Once expired, you will be required to purchase additional online training to continue (various add-on options will be offered to 12 week online training customers once your training is completed).

First, understand we primarily focus on 3 areas of training. 1) strength training, 2) cardiovascular training, and 3) flexibility/mobility work. Yes, the same could be said about many training systems available out there, but what sets us apart, is that our training routines include strength, cardiovascular, and flexibility/mobility individually and collectively within our routines. We also focus on the attention to detail when it comes to performing exercises, as the development of proper athletic biomechanics is key. Through a combination of sports science, and 30+ years of experience, we have proven training system that works.

Without giving away the PerformX ingredients, simply put, we focus on developing athletic POWER.  Why Power?  Because of physics.  Power = Force X Distance / Time.  Force could be seen as STRENGTH and Distance / Time as ENDURANCE. Through the PerformX training protocol, we focus on elevating an athletes POWER through strength and endurance training.  How to maximize the development of strength and endurance, in the shortest, safest, and most effective approach, is the ingredients of our PerformX training system.    

For each routine (4, 8, or 12 week of the MTB, Moto, or Action Sports options), we have a limited or full equipment option. Here’s the list of what’s required for each:

• • Limited Equipment (typically home based):
    • Dumbbells or kettlebells.
    • Strength training pulley system or resistance bands.
    • Exercise (Swiss) ball.
    • Plyometric box (or suitable for) or free-weight bench.
    • Rowing machine (optional; preferably Concept2).
  • Full Equipment (typically gym based):
    • Barbell & plates.
    • Squat rack or power rack.
    • Bench press rack or free-weight bench.
    • Strength training pulley system.
    • Exercise (Swiss) ball.
    • Rowing machine (preferably Concept2).
    • Plyometric box (optional).

       

Note: PerformX members have discount access to Concept2 rowing machines and Ancore Training pulley systems, just contact us for more info.

All routines are supported by detailed instructions, including photo and video (with verbal instruction). We have spent a lot time and planning to provide our members with above standard exercise instructions.  Again, our training is highly focused on the ‘attention to detail’. 

We do not prescribe Enduro and DH training differently, as both have multiple efforts (number of downhill runs vs. enduro stages), multiple on-bike days at an event, similar biomechanics, recovery, and more. We also believe body type and genetics play a bigger role in an athletes performance, so we develop our training around athletes “exploring” their strength and weaknesses.  Last, our training is highly focused on developing rider biomechanics, which are very similar between downhill and enduro mountain bike, including body position, the demand of terrain (rocks, roots, drops/jumps, chunder, etc), and physical output (strength, endurance, and cardiovascular).
