For anyone looking to succeed in any sporting endeavour following a well structured plan helps. It also helps to be coached by someone who is dedicated and experienced in finding the best way for you to achieve your goals.
That's what we're looking for here.
The difference between coaching and mentoring is very subtle.
A mentored athlete generally prefers to be guided to take their own decisions about training and racing. By discussing training sessions and results of races you are helped discover your own path to success.
A coached athlete often prefers a more prescriptive relationship. We agree sensible targets and then set the programme, including individual session plans and the right periodisation plan that gets you to your events in the best condition - ready to succeed.
..... a coach's sole focus should be on the goals and ambitions of his athletes.
Whatever your aims the job of a coach is quite simple:- To take you from where you are today to where you want to be tomorrow.
That has to be achieved while taking into account your lifestyle, family commitments and available time for taining.
That's true for any sport. Here's how we can help with single or multi-sport coaching:
We often comment on each individual session when we analyse what you've completed, to compere how it went with the plan, but still want to review the past week with you before planning the next. So contact beween us is important. You can use;
✓ text |
✓ Skype |
I'm happy to have face to face meetings using any method, subject to time constraints.
You can also send video clips you've managed to take and we'll analyse these and give feedback.
We'll deliver the weekly programme using either TrainingPeaks or Excel spreadsheets
You can have a free membership of TrainingPeaks and it gives indications of your fitness, form and readiness to race, when used in conjunction with a smart watch (like Garmin, Polar etc.).
Excel plans will be delivered through a shared DropBox folder.
TrainingPeaks gives us information through analytics it provides and we can often complete the next phase without contact, although that is not ideal.
We're happy to analyse video of your swimming, cycling and running. To do that you will have to take the video - preferably in good quality, at least 1080p HD - slow motion would be great too. We will deliver feedback both verbally and through video analysis on the YouTube Channel SwimCycleRunCoach."
