80/20 Endurance Jobs
Overview
80/20 Endurance is seeking experienced cycling coaches to help deliver cycling workouts live and virtually, via video, and teach skills related to the workouts’ focus, for our soon-to-launch 80/20 Virtual Cycling Club subscription service.
The job entails providing structured cycling workouts with instructions and gamification to 80/20 athletes, mostly cyclists and triathletes. This is a great opportunity for a hungry endurance coach who is confident in their ability to bring real value to the 80/20 Virtual Cycling Club subscription service, and who relishes the potential to grow and develop with 80/20 Endurance and advance their career path in coaching.
Location
This is a remote position. Applicants from any location are welcome.
Position and Pay
As a contracted position, the Virtual Cycling Coach will receive a flat-fee payment for each cycling workout they deliver and execute live, via a software program called Velocity. The coach would work directly with the Program Manager to build, schedule and deliver the workouts on a timeline suitable for the coach.
Pay Rate: Compensation for coaches begins at $40 minimum per workout, and adjusts up from there based on the number of workouts delivered in a month, the length of each workout, (30-60 mins), as well as the experience level of the coach and the quality of the workouts and athlete experience delivered.
Time Commitment: The estimated weekly time commitment would be between 1-4 hours per week, based on agreement between 80/20 Endurance and the coach. Motivated and successful coaches have the potential to increase their time commitment and compensation beyond this level.
Bonus Pay: There will also potentially be bonus payments available for coaches based on performance.
Years of Service: Those coaches who establish themselves will find a long-term growth opportunity of higher pay per workout and additional bonus pay for the viewership and following they create.
Responsibilities
These are virtual cycling workouts, with a coach live on video, facilitating the structured workout to the attendees, complete with guidance on the skills to execute. This is very similar to an in-person spin or cycling trainer studio workout at a facility, but delivered virtually, with gamification.

- Leverage the software’s tools to deliver a fun, engaging workout for athletes
- Give feedback to athletes to help them enjoy, learn, and stay engaged in the workout
- Coaches will coach the workout while on a bike themselves
- Workouts delivered can range from 30 mins to 2 hours, and will be approved by 80/20 staff (Coaches can choose which workout types and lengths they are comfortable providing)
