Welcome to the MTB Strength Training Systems Facility website

Imagine if there was a guaranteed way to help you ride

faster, longer & with more confidence on the trail…

• Do you wonder how “natural” riders are able to make everything look so easy while you struggle to see the smallest improvements in your endurance and speed?

• Have you resigned yourself to walking the same parts of your favorite trail every time you ride because you just can’t figure out how to improve your balance, pedaling power and/ or technical skills?

• Do you avoid certain trails because they are just too hard and intimidating?

• Are you tired of feeling “beat up” after a long ride and requiring a few days to recover before you’re ready to hit the trail again?

If you answered “Yes” to any or all of these questions then this will be the most important thing you read to improve your mountain biking experience…

My name is James Wilson and, like you, I live to ride my mountain bike. I’m a strength coach who has trained 3 national champions, several world cup racers and currently work for the Yeti Cycles/ Fox Racing Shox racing team. I’ve changed the way mountain bikers think about training through countless articles and videos that have appeared in top mountain biking magazines and websites like Decline Magazine, Pinkbike.com, VitalMTB.com and NSMB.com, just to name a few.

I started MTB Strength Training Systems for the sole purpose of helping riders like you ride faster, longer and with more confidence on the trail through the lessons I’ve learned in my own journey. Based on my personal journey and my experience working with top pros plus hundreds of “weekend warriors” around the world I’ve cracked the code on how to make massive improvement as a mountain bike rider.

Here is what riders are saying about this unique approach to mountain bike training…

“The innovative programs that James Wilson provided for me during the 3 years we worked together played a big role in my rapid success at the highest levels of downhill racing.

Any rider who wants to get the most out of their abilities should invest in a program from James – it will definitely help you ride faster and with more confidence.”

“On a busy day when I can’t ride, James’ workout works me hard and gives me the confidence I’m doing the right thing. I trust the guy, and doing what he says feels easy (mentally, not physically!).

I really dig the MTB Strength Training System. It’s teaching me a lot about my body, it’s making me strong, it’s adding variety to my workouts, and it’s actually pretty fun. If you’re willing to put in the work, I recommend James Wilson’s program.”

“I have finally really started my fall training and your program rocks! In my 19 years as a professional athlete and coach I have never had or taught a workout program this effective. When I first talked to you about your program I thought it was very similar to what I have learned and developed for myself and my clients. Wow, was I wrong!

Your strength training program is different and better than anything I have tried in the past. There is an old saying that goes something like “the definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different results”. Well this year I expect to have more snap, better control and most of all more fun because your program is going to make me stronger than ever.

Thank you…”

My own questions about how to improve as a mountain biker lead me on a journey that has taught me lessons that I want to share with you. I can fast-track your education as a rider and ensure that your best days on the trail are just around the corner.

Here is what you can expect to learn from a training program with us:

- MTB Specific Strength and Mobility Strategies: Learn how to turn gym time into “skills training” by targeting the movements and types of strength you need on the trail. If you don’t know why you are doing an exercise and how it will directly affect you on the trail then why do it? What’s worse, some common “mountain bike specific exercises” can actually make it harder for you to see improvements on the trail.

- MTB Specific Nutrition and Supplement Strategies: Unless you are putting the right kinds of fuel into your body at the right times, all your training can be wasted. However, good nutrition isn’t complicated and by understanding and applying some basic principles you can see massive improvements in your energy levels and body composition. Supplements are another area that can make a big difference but you can’t just buy performance in a bottle. There are a lot of scams out there and you can waste a lot of money if you don’t know what works and why.

- MTB Skills Training: What good is training and eating better if you don’t know how to apply it to the trail? You’ll learn how to improve your body position for improved balance, cornering for improved speed and control and manualing/ jumping for improved style points. You’ll learn some basic drills that you can do anywhere, anytime so you can continue to work on these vital skills after you get back home.

So, here is what I want to do for you – I want to personally invite you to come in for a free Trail Rider Body Blueprint Evaluation. I’ll sit down with you and go over your goals as a rider, take you through a quick and easy screening process and show you exactly how to target the areas that are holding you back on the trail.

I’ll also show you how I can help you achieve your goals through the unique fitness and skills training process that is available only at the MTB Strength Training Systems facility – no where else in the world offers this type of program and riders have traveled from around the globe to come here and take advantage of it.

You can ride faster, longer and with more confidence on the trail but only if you take action now. Separate yourself from the herd of average riders who wish they could improve but aren’t willing to put the time and effort to act on it.

You can schedule your free evaluation by calling 589-6418 or sending an email to info@mtbstrengthtraining.com. You can ride faster, longer and with more confidence on the trail but only if you take action now. Separate yourself from the herd of average riders who wish they could improve but aren’t willing to put the time and effort to act on it.

Ride Strong,

James Wilson
