Engine First
|
We coach execution — not just workouts.
Engine-first training since the early 90’s—before “Zone 2” had a hashtag. We build the human engine, train cadence + gearing as skills, then layer intensity with purpose— so your fitness shows up as repeatable performance when it counts.
What you’ll see below: proof from champions and an execution example inside THE SYSTEM™.

Execution First
The engine supports the work. The work becomes repeatable under fatigue.
Proven Results
A snapshot of outcomes. The point isn’t the numbers—it’s what they represent: durability, repeatability, and execution under pressure.

The Proof Panel → Elite Outcomes in One View
Three elite profiles. Clear measurable gains across peak power, sustained power, durability, and repeatability.
- Peak power increased across elite profiles (+17% to +37% Pmax).
- Sustained performance moved with higher aerobic and 60-minute capability (MFTP +10%, VO₂ +6%).
- Durability + repeatability scaled aggressively (TTE +93%, FRC +108%).

This is what produces the results above
Proven Results are the outcome. Execution standards are the mechanism. Below is a real 40-minute Cadence Steps (Level 1) session from inside THE SYSTEM™— where pacing discipline, cadence control, and heart-rate management show up as clean, repeatable data.
- Symmetry: cadence steps ramp up and down with near-identical shape.
- Precision: power sits on prescription—no ego watts, no ERG dependence.
- Control: heart rate rises smoothly and stays managed across the set.
- Skill: high-rpm surges snap into range, then settle cleanly without chaos.
- Framework: built on the 6×6 platform (Endurance × Cadence Control) so it holds under load.
CIS difference: training is the input — execution is the output. That’s how fitness becomes performance.
