Training Tips For Aspiring Motocross Champions
Training Tips For Aspiring Motocross Champions – Advanced enduro and hard enduro riding takes energy and dedication, it doesn’t just happen, so this is how Megs and I approach upping our game, and it ultimately boils down to dedicated training. I’ve written this following our live chat on the topic – you can watch it here:
So what is dedicated practice? It focuses on individual elements of skill or riding so go home and spend some time focusing on that alone. Think of it like doing drills, over and over again.

It’s important because it allows you to really develop and embed the movement into muscle memory. Once you reach the subconscious level you free up your mental capacity for other areas. Like reading the terrain ahead, which will actually help you go faster. Think of a Dakar rider capable of riding at +80mph inhaling sand dunes and unknown terrain while following the paper-scrolling navigation on their bars using the cover title. Without muscle memory this is impossible.

For me it has to be a log, even though it always scares me. With practice I started to be able to achieve bigger and bigger things. Logs come in all shapes and sizes, with different runs and inherent, then you add wet conditions and it’s a different board game. Unfortunately, my favorite is the corner. I’ve been spending time on figure 8 drills and have definitely improved but put me in the unknown or flat corners and I’m not yet at the point of really trusting the side tread and throwing it into the corner for whatever I encounter next. Much more training is required.
If you’re like me when I first heard about dedicated practice, you probably wondered what your area of focus should be? Here are some ideas to find yours:
If you’re still sitting there thinking…ummm I can’t think of one area… there are two possibilities, either you’re GForce Jarvis and an absolute professional… or… more likely….you’re not focusing your mind on your ride enough. Maybe ask a friend what they think is your weaker area. Friends are usually good at knowing and a good friend will be honest with you!
I was afraid of going downhill but with practice, going round and round I started to normalize the fear:

Next it’s time to talk about actually working on them. You need to think about training to focus. Cornering is a simple example with figure 8s. Standing, sitting, up/down, burms, off camber, flat, gravel, potholes, sand.
Find a way to ride them as much as you can. If you don’t have a specific area where you can train, when you go riding our trails, try to dedicate ten minutes each time you ride. Find a space where you won’t bother anyone and focus on that skill.
Using friends to give you their own visuals or videos is a great way to get analytics. Most of the time I think I’m going over the corner, elbows up, weight forward…and then I look at the video and it barely looks like I’m even trying. Video is a great tool for self-analysis!
If you’re not sure about the technique, move on to some online tutorials, YouTube is an obvious start and Megs has plenty!

It’s not just about getting better at what you do, it’s also about expanding your riding skill set. So how do we identify them?
An important factor when pushing your riding to the next level is understanding that it can take time. It can take hours of practice, fall after fall and a lot of bike falls. You might even nail it one day and then fail completely the next. This is why dedicated training is necessary, keep it dialed in until you get consistent performance. do not give up! You may also want to get help from others or make your own videos and review some online tutorials as it can be small changes in your body that can get you there.
But don’t give up. Rome wasn’t built in a day and progress can take a lot of sweat and bruises.

Having said that…it is also important to understand how far to push yourself and know when you are at your limit. To progress, you have to leave your comfort zone but it is important to keep working so far. Enduro and hard enduro can be very challenging and dangerous sports, so it’s about taking calculated risks. Push beyond your limits but in a safe way. I guess it’s the difference between brave and stupid!
No time to give up, here I am three times tired and know it’s time to go, live for another day and conquer that hill/step another time.
You must leave your comfort zone to grow, but remember the difference between courage and stupidity! Cycling Girl
It is also important to know when to stop. Maybe today is not the day. Go and try again another day. This can be especially important when things aren’t right. Don’t set the be all and end all goal of learning to wheelie on a wet day, that’s ridiculous. Try something else.
