Associate Coach & Personal Trainer

Sarah Hunter is an FTP Cycling Coach and qualified personal trainer. She has been writing for Mountain Biking Australia magazine and Bicycling Australia magazine for a number of year on all things strength and conditioning relating to cyclists.  Her cycling passion spans many disciplines, but if you ask her what her favourite is, the answer will be 'my heart is always on my mountain bike'.
 
She rides MTB, gravel, TT, road and has raced across all 4 disciplines, with an appearance at the TT world champs back in 2016, as well as representing Australia at the Duathlon world champs in 2017, and snagging a very respectable 5th place.
She is passionate about strength training and how it should be incorporated into every riders' training program.

After completing my Bachelor of Exercise Science (Hons) and working with the Malaysian Sprint Cycling team in the lead up to the London Olympics, I then went on to complete my Masters in High Performance Sport, which involved working with an elite level Rugby League Team. Applying my educational knowledge to these two vastly different professional environments cemented my passion for working with athletes. I get great pleasure from helping both individuals and teams get the most out of their performances through the employment of sports science and correctly applied training principles. Not only is it about the numbers, but also having a support network to look at the overall picture of performance.

My passion for cycling doesn’t end there; filtering down to the next generation in the sport; as a mentor through various school development programs.
