Physio Bikefit Level 1 (formerly Level 1 and 2)

Next Live Lectures: September 22, 2023

Course Description

The equivalent of two days of training with world leaders in cycling injury prevention and management, where you will learn current best practice in cycling assessment and bike set-up, in a convenient live workshop format. At the end of your course, you will have an enhanced ability to assess the cycling body, rehabilitate and load manage. You will learn how to fit the bike to the cyclist's body to rule out bike fit as a problem source and have a working knowledge of current cycling science.

We've moved our popular Physio Bikefit professional development online, making it available to all practitioners and bike fitters - irrespective of where you're based!

Being available on demand means you can study when it suits you - plus, you get to connect with our broader Physio Bikefit community. No need to travel - open to participants globally. Start or develop your Bikefit career now with our free lecture and upcoming courses.
