About Chia Chen

"I have extensive cycling race experience, teaching me how to remain stable under extreme conditions and the dual importance of physical and mental resilience.
I’ve observed many athletes fall into the 'more is better' trap, leading to injury or plateaus. Leveraging my race data and expertise, I help students optimize everything from posture and power distribution to race strategy. Whether you're chasing a new PR or just starting out, I will identify the best starting point for you to avoid setbacks and achieve steady progress."

Coaching Philosophy

"My coaching philosophy is centered on: 'Data-driven precision, personalized for your needs.'
• No More Blind Training: Everyone’s body and lifestyle are unique. I advocate for precise intensity control—using heart rate, power, or pace—instead of just chasing volume.
• Dynamic Balance: Training should enhance your life, not consume it. My plans integrate with your work and rest schedule, ensuring a perfect balance between 'effective load' and 'full recovery.'
• Race-Oriented Approach: All training eventually returns to the road. I integrate tactical thinking and adaptability from the competitive scene into my coaching, teaching you how to deliver your peak performance when it matters most."
