Introducing Topp Cycling for Coaches: A New Era for Cycling Coaching in the UK

Over the past two years, I've spent countless hours talking to UK cycling coaches (and those further afield) to figure out what's holding coaches back, how they can scale their businesses while still giving athletes the best coaching possible, and whether they'd bumped up against the same barriers I did when I was coaching (I strongly suspected they had, and I wasn’t alone!). 

One thing quickly became clear: while passion for cycling is absolutely there, the business side of coaching often trips people up. Many UK cycling coaches told me they spend more time on scheduling, payments, and managing spreadsheets than actually coaching. Even the most talented coaches can struggle to grow their business or deliver consistent results if the admin side takes over.

That’s one reason why we started building Topp Cycling. While our full offering for cycling coaches is still in development, the goal is clear: to help coaches focus on what they love most; 

• supporting athletes more effectively

• and making scaling a coaching business simpler

  
  

UK Coaches Are Excited About Topp Cycling!

Even at this early stage, cycling coaches have been sharing their enthusiasm for our platform. Imagine hiring an assistant coach that:

• Leverages huge historic cycling data sets to inform coaching decisions and provide actionable insights

• Alerts you when athletes need attention and offers suggested feedback

• Provides dynamic science-led athlete nutrition guidance based on expected output v actual completed sessions and upcoming training load

  
  

And every time a Topp Cycling athlete logs training data (rides, power numbers, or sleep data), our system continuously refines the data sets which inform the training model, helping coaches make more informed decisions in the future. Our coaches and athletes are contributing to the platform with every session they complete.
