#ShredStrong
Are you ready to get stronger, more powerful, and more resilient on and off the bike?
We start a new cycle every month, for forever!
Ever feel slow on your bike? Do climbs feel really difficult for you? Do you feel like you have no power to pedal?
If this sounds like you, there is hope.
The #ShredStrong program is built by a mountain biking strength and conditioning coach, for mountain bikers (and gravel cyclists) just like you.
Feel strong on the climbs
To get up a steep climb, you need strength to generate power to the pedals, along with the muscular endurance to pedal with greater ease. You will gain this through having a stronger core, legs, and upper body so you can zip up a hill faster than you can imagine.
Feel like you can pedal hard for longer
The weekly bike intervals included in the program along with the strength sessions will give you the strength and power you need to pedal harder for longer. Your legs will feel like engines on the bike!
Feel more confident over tough terrain
Having more strength and stability will make you feel more confident as you handle the terrain in front of you – including those large boulders that may intimidate you.
BONUS: you’ll feel more resilient to injury with the added strength!
How It Works
Step 1
Pay + Download the app
Once you pay and sign up, we’ll send you an email with an invitation to join the training app. Then, install the app on your iOS or Android device so you can get started.
Step 2
Explore the app
The first time you log in, we’ll lead you through a simple process to setup your profile. From there, we’ll do the work of sending you the workouts every month, made just for you – to make you strong AF on and off the bike. You get demo videos and clear instructions every step of the way.
Step 3
Message your coach any time!
Yep, your coach is a real human and not a bot, and your membership in #ShredStrong includes access to her! Have an injury for which you need a substitution? Your coach has you covered. Have a question about anything at all? She’s only a message away.
Step 4
Join the badass community
This isn’t just an app or a training program. It’s a community. Get advice from other bikers in the forum, compete in upcoming riding challenges, and even buy and sell gear, or share training tips or recipes. Plus, use the private Facebook group to meet up and train with other users IRL for added accountability and fun.
Step 5
Build better trails while you train!
Sure, a good training session is its own reward. But who doesn’t like a little positive reinforcement from time to time? Every quarter, a portion of your membership investment goes towards local trail building organizations across the United States and Canada – including places where the #ShredStrong team lives and rides. Plus, there will be occasional prizes available when you meet your biggest goals or beat out other users in some of our upcoming challenges.

How much does it cost?
If you choose to go with the monthly program, it’s $49 every 4 weeks. You can save $10 a month by investing in 6 months at once for $234, which is an incredible way to commit to yourself and show up to make your goals a reality (while saving some money). Both plans are recurring, but you can cancel before the next recurring bill (you will get an email reminder in advance before each bill).
Does it matter if I’m new to strength training?
Nope! If you’re just getting started, we think this is the best way to start logging workouts safely and comfortably with the support of a professional coach who is available to watch your form and answer any questions you may have. You’ll learn a ton about strength training best practices, terminology, and even corrections to your form in our interactive forums.
How do I know it’s for me?
Do you love to ride your bike? Then it’s for you. Do you want to feel strong on the bike (and when you carry your groceries in one trip into your house)? Then this is for you. We’ve seen members start off with lighter weights and less resistance, while also feeling unstable on the bike – and within a few months, they are feeling so much more stable, stronger, PR’ing segments, and are more pain-free!
How much do I have to participate in the community?
It’s totally up to you. We think you’ll have more fun if you contribute to the forums within your private Facebook community and group chat, but you can also use the app as a more straightforward fitness app if you’d like. You can always silence notifications. It’s your call.
When can I get started?
The next training phase starts on the last or first week of every month going forward, depending on the timing of every cycle. You need to join by paying no later than the end of the day on the Friday prior to each start date (use the links on this page to register and join). If you have questions about when the next cycle will start, email Jen at jen@shifthumanperformance.com.
What equipment do I need to get started?
You’ll start by choosing whether you have access to a barbell or no barbell; the non-barbell program used dumbbells, bands, and bodyweight. You will be added to the program you choose. You can always adjust your program settings later. (NOTE: The barbell program also uses dumbbells, bands, and bodyweight.)
Does my location matter?
Nope! Anyone can use the app and join the community from any where in the world. We have athletes from all over the world, including some traveling healthcare and military personnel.
What if I have any questions or am unsure if I’m moving correctly in an exercise?
You can always message Jen or the team in the app. You’ll get a response within 24 hours or less (oftentimes much less), except over the weekends. Once a week, you can message Coach Jen a video of you performing an exercise so she can analyze it and provide any feedback to you – this will make you feel more confident moving at home or at the gym on your own. It’s like having a Personal Trainer right in your pocket, but for a fraction of the cost (skilled personal training can cost around $1,000 a month for 3 sessions a week).
Meet Coach Jen
The founder of Shift Human Performance, Jen is dedicated to all of her athletes. Jen has been coaching for over 15 years and started mountain biking in college back in 2001 – and she’s been hooked ever since (after a hiatus of about 10 years – shhhh, it happens!).
