Cyclocross page - sub image“My best season,” Sean Pasieka says, “I came off the road season flying and went into the ‘cross season flying – I was able to hold this dragon form through the entire ‘cross season. The feeling was incredible. I won races, I was 2nd at the State Championships, I was 2nd overall in the MAC Series overall, I helped a teammate win a few late-season races – I had the perfect dream season.”

This perfect dream season is a reality for all riders – cyclocross is an autumn and winter sport, and Coach Pasieka understands that the demands of peak cyclocross performance must be addressed year-round.

Coach Pasieka creates a complete cyclocross program, both on and off the bike. Working with Kenneth Lundgren to generate velocity profiles and weekly schedules on the bike, Sean fully enhances the training stress by blending personal off-the-bike speed and agility sessions into the program. Speedcenter cyclocross workouts are based on the athlete’s strengths and weaknesses, on goals and objectives, workouts proven to increase athlete leg strength, to deepen the athlete’s power curve, to improve recovery, endurance, aerobic capacity, aerobic efficiency, rate-to-fatigue, and injury-prevention – all attributes that can make an average ‘cross racer GOOD, a good one GREAT – and a great one LEGENDARY.

Coach Pasieka helps direct the weekly Wednesday Worlds cyclocross practices and is a wealth of cyclocross information, performing cyclocross bike-fits, providing personal race strategies, offering secret fueling tips for racing performance, advising how best to warm-up and warm-down on race day, how to pre-ride like a professional, how to choose the best tires for every condition.

You need gladiator strength for cyclocross, and this cyclocross program gives you unmatched cyclocross strength and movement. Sean is the region’s premier cyclocross coach and offers an exclusive program for singular success in the violent art that is cyclocross.
