Wahoo X Takes You To The UCI World Cycling Center

Ever wonder what it is like to be an elite cyclist training at the UCI World Cycling Center? Well, Wahoo is giving you a behind-the-scenes look with their “A Week With the UCI World Cycling Center” series on Wahoo X.
In a partnership between Wahoo Fitness and the UCI World Cycling Center, the series is currently available through the Wahoo X membership. The platform offers two apps, Wahoo SYSTM for structured workouts, and Wahoo RGT for virtual riding and racing. Through the series, users will get an immersive training experience to train like a pro on the track, road, mountain, or BMX.
When you start the series, it opens with your invitation to join the UCI World Cycling Center for a week. From there, you get a tour of the facility, along with four workouts that are focused on each of the cycling disciplines. In each of these workouts, coaches, riders, and staff share what it is like to be at the UCI World Cycling Center, along with tips on technique.
The A Week with the UCI World Cycling Center series is a great way for the Wahoo X members to really get into the daily lives of athletes,” explains Jacques Landry, UCI World Cycling Center Director. “These athletes come to us from many parts of the globe to improve their physical and mental development and acquire important technical and tactical knowledge to help them reach their goals in cycling. Participants in this series will be put through the paces of our athletes’ training and racing routines. Get ready to have fun, work hard and learn a lot, with our talented riders and staff!”
