About Nankervis Cycle Sports Coaching

Science-led cycling coaching led by an Exercise Physiologist (Tasman) and an Exercise Scientist (Kobe).

We coach athletes across Road, Gravel, MTB and Triathlon using an evidence-based approach that improves performance while protecting long-term health. Our focus is simple: train with purpose, build durability, and develop the “mental muscle” to execute when conditions get tough.

Our Coaching Philosophy

Every athlete is different - so coaching should be too.

We build training around:

• Your goals (events, performance targets, enjoyment, confidence)

• Your life (time, work, family, recovery capacity)

• Your physiology (strengths, limiters, injury history, training age)

We believe results come from the process:

• Consistency beats hero sessions

• Durability matters as much as fitness

• Recovery is training

• Execution wins (pacing, fueling, mindset)

What We Help You Improve

Whether you’re chasing a first event or your best season yet, we help you build:

• A stronger engine (aerobic development + targeted intensity)

• Late-race durability (finish stronger, fade less)

• Smarter pacing and tactics (power/HR/RPE strategies you can execute)

• Fueling confidence (simple, repeatable plans)

• Strength and resilience (cycling-specific strength integrated into the plan)

• Mental muscle (calm focus when it gets uncomfortable)

Who We Coach

We work with:

• Road cyclists (crits, road racing, fondos)

• Gravel riders (endurance events, UCI goals)

• MTB riders (XCO/XCM, technical confidence + conditioning)

• Triathletes (short course + long course)

• Beginners through advanced - if you’re ready to train with structure, we can help.
