Online coaching

Overview:

All plans will be completely tailored to each individual's needs and goals. I do not subscribe to a generalised one size fits all approach - everyone is different so everyone requires a unique programme to reach their full potential. Training will focus on your sport (running or cycling) complimented with S&C (gym and core strength) and cross training, where appropriate, to make you a more well rounded and robust athlete.

The process:

  • Contact me for an initial discussion regarding your requirements. We will talk through:

    • An overview of how you have been training

    • What you would like to achieve in the short and long term

    • What you think your current athletic level is

    • There is no obligation to enter into a coaching agreement after the initial consultation

  • If you would like to proceed then I will outline a plan of how the coaching agreement will work based around what was discussed in the initial consultation

    • I will let you know the cost per month of delivering what you require

    • The cost per month will depend on the amount of input, analysis, tweaking, feedback and contact time you would like - this can be completely tailored to your wishes

  • Set up a TrainingPeaks account if you do not already have one

    • This is the platform I use for planning and analysing the training and racing for all my athletes and the platform I have used myself for the past 10 years

    • I train all my athletes using heart rate for running, and heart rate and/or power for cycling, therefore a heart rate monitor will be required. I can recommend a suitable model if you do not already own one

  • I will put together a periodised training plan that will outline each training phase for the next 6 to 12 months

    • Periodised training is widely accepted as the most efficient training method for increasing 'fitness' and delivering peak performance when required (major race, event or adventure)

  • The training plan commences with daily planned sessions delivered in either week or two-week blocks (depending on the client's preference)

    • I will set a session that will act as a performance test early on in our training - from this I will analyse the data and calculate the heart rate (and power for cycling) training zones that I recommend you train in for different sessions

    • I will soon be able to offer in-house lactate threshold testing to more accurately determine your current level of aerobic capacity and training zones. Please let me know during our initial conversation if this is a service you would be interested in
