This program offers professional-level coaching combined with highly effective structured workouts. The program helped me reach another level in cycling. In addition to the program's physical aspects, the program teaches the rider to "focus on being focused." This is key to development on the bike, but it transcended cycling and affected my life outside of cycling as well. As Coach David says, if you have dreams, you better have goals. CIS can help riders reach their goals and live their cycling dreams. Anyone serious about improving as a cyclist should consider THE SYSTEM offered by CIS. THE SYSTEM has helped me tremendously, and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

This was my first program completed with the CIS System - and I am very impressed by the system, the approach and by Coach David. I came into the system in good shape (started right as outdoor season ended) and over the 24 week program have improved significantly. The program is well structured and it teaches you the importance of bringing along the "engine" in zone 2. It may not sound that impressive riding in Zone 2 - but it is hugely important and beneficial. Coach David is very knowledgeable and it is a big motivating factor knowing that he sees all your efforts - often you will get a message saying "well done, but next time think about so and so". Always in an encouraging way and based on your own specific efforts. Finally, the CIS community should not be underestimated - it is a great group to be part of whether on real life outdoor rides or whether on Zwift group rides over the winter - very inspiring and helpful. I am very eager to move onto the next program and continue the improvement journey under Coach David's guidance

Finally, I have found a well thought out and structured training system that will bring my cycling and fitness to a whole new level. The program is organized in chapters that you go through, like a book you don't want to put down. The schedule is also well spread out and allows me to balance my training time with my busy schedule. CIS and Zwift, my indoor cycling season has never been so exciting! Claude Théberge Montreal, Qc Canada
