High Performance Behaviour Coaching for Professional Riders 

My individual coaching focuses on strengthening behaviour, mental structure, and resilience within the reality of professional cycling.

I work with riders who want to improve stability, focus, and performance — both in calm periods and under extreme pressure.

All coaching is 1-to-1, fully tailored, and integrated into the daily life of a professional rider. 

Behaviour, Lifestyle & Structure Analysis 

Performance is strongly influenced by daily habits, routines, and lifestyle choices.
I analyse these patterns in depth and translate them into clear, sustainable high-performance behaviours.

What I do:

• observation and in-depth conversations

• analysis of routines, recovery, focus, and stress

• creating structure and clarity in daily behaviour

What this delivers:

• more mental calm

• better energy management

• a stable foundation for performance 

Performing Under Pressure 

I help riders manage race stress, media attention, internal team pressure, and personal expectations.

By strengthening mental and behavioural resilience, riders learn to perform consistently when it matters most.

What I do:

• analyse stress responses and pressure moments

• develop coping strategies and focus mechanisms

• work on calmness, clarity, and control under pressure

What this delivers:

• more consistent performances

• reduced mental overload

• better decision-making in races 

1-to-1 Coaching & Individual Guidance 

Every rider is different. My coaching is fully adapted to the rider's personality, goals, and professional context.

What I do:

• individual coaching sessions

• targeted behavioural interventions

• continuous alignment with the demands of the season

What this delivers:

• coaching that truly fits the rider

• faster insight and behavioural change

• sustainable development rather than short-term fixes 

Managing Expectations 

Professional riders are often pulled in multiple directions by expectations from teams, family, fans, media, and themselves.
I help structure and manage these pressures.

What I do:

• map internal and external expectations

• define priorities and boundaries

• build realistic focus and perspective

What this delivers:

• less mental noise

• greater sense of control

• improved focus on what truly matters 

Identifying and Changing Self-Sabotaging Behaviour 

Patterns such as perfectionism, avoidance, over-control, or procrastination can silently undermine performance.
I help riders recognise and change these patterns.

What I do:

• identify underlying behavioural mechanisms

• apply targeted interventions

• build functional, performance-enhancing habits

What this delivers:

• fewer mental blocks

• increased self-trust

• greater consistency in performance

Acute Intervention in Blocks or Crisis Situations 

After crashes, conflicts, traumatic experiences, or personal difficulties, riders can get mentally stuck.

In these moments, I provide immediate and focused intervention.

What I do:

• rapid assessment of the blockage

• short-term, targeted interventions

• restoring direction, confidence, and control

What this delivers:

• faster mental recovery

• prevention of long-term setbacks

• ability to move forward again 

Race Preparation 

Race readiness goes beyond physical condition.
I work with riders on mental clarity, confidence, and behavioural readiness leading into competition.

What I do:

• build personalised pre-race routines

• work on focus and emotional balance

• strengthen trust in preparation and execution

What this delivers:

• calmness at the start

• sharper focus during races

• better execution under pressure

Working with the Rider's Non-Professional Network 

Family, partners, and close surroundings can strongly influence stress levels and behaviour.
When needed, I also work with the rider's broader environment.

What I do:

• align expectations

• improve communication

• reduce external pressure and noise

What this delivers:

• a more stable personal environment

• less external stress

• more sustainable behavioural change 

Breaking Negative Thought Patterns 

Catastrophic thinking and negative scenarios can completely block performance.
I help riders recognise and interrupt these mental loops.

What I do:

• stop negative spirals

• replace catastrophic thinking with controllable focus

• provide tools for mental clarity under pressure

What this delivers:

• increased confidence

• mental calm

• better cognitive control in stressful moments
