BOBSLEIGH

Bobsleigh training plans, built for your goal

A bobsleigh run is largely decided in the first 30-50 metres, where the push crew's sprint power loading the sled sets the pace before the pilot takes over steering line and precision through the curves at high g-force. SportBlox builds your bobsleigh training plan around your role — push athlete or pilot — your goal and current level.

Who it's for

Who it's for

Push-start sprint power

Sprint and Olympic-lift programming for push athletes and brakemen aimed at a faster, more powerful sled load.

Piloting precision under g-force

Steering-simulation and reaction-time work for pilots refining their line through curves.

Off-season strength and sprint base

General sprint speed and strength foundation for athletes new to the sport or between seasons.

Personalisation

How SportBlox personalises it

Your goal & event date

Sessions build toward the specific goal and date you set, with a taper if you're racing or competing.

Your skill level

Volume and intensity scale to where you actually are, from Inexperienced to Professional.

Your stated weaknesses

Tell SportBlox about things like explosive start-block acceleration, sled-loading technique, steering line consistency through curves and the plan weights sessions toward fixing them.

Your schedule

The plan fits the days and time you say you have — not an idealised training week.

For coaches

FAQ

Bobsleigh training plan FAQ

Does this plan differ for push athletes and pilots?

Yes — tell it your role and push athletes get more sprint and lift volume while pilots get more steering-simulation and reaction work.

Do I need track access to follow this plan?

No — most sessions are sprint, gym and push-simulation work; on-track sessions slot in when you flag access.

Is this suitable for someone new to bobsleigh?

Yes — many bobsleigh athletes come from athletics or rugby backgrounds; tell it your sprint and strength background and the plan adapts.

Can it build toward a specific competition?

Yes, add the event and start-power work peaks leading into it.

Will it fit around limited track and ice availability?

Yes — flag your access and sprint, gym and push-simulation work fills the gaps.
