t2coaching F.A.Q about the triathlon programs

General Questions I am often asked from athletes:

How do you communicate the training? I use training peaks to load your program. Plus I respond to text and email daily, unless I notify you I am racing or out of service. Phone call set up by appointment.

Frequency of contact? email and texting whenever, phone calls set up with advance notice

How do you track progress (metrics) and are they important in your planning (watts, HR, pace, etc). Athletes upload their Garmin or Timex and me analysis whatever they train with, power, heart rate, pace, RPE, the more detailed training log the better.

Is a training plan tailored to me – personally, specifically, uniquely. I do not have generic plans, they are trailed to each athlete based on goals, experience, strengths, and weaknesses.

How do you analyze technique, mainly in the water? I have athletes who are not local send me a video of them swimming, above and underwater if possible. That helps me prescribe drills and skills

How do you determine training intensity? The athlete starts with a series of a swim, bike and run test wearing their power and heart rate monitor. Based on the average HR for those tests, I can determine specific training zones.

s a training plan tailored to me – personally, specifically, uniquely. I do not have generic plans, they are trailed to each athlete based on goals, experience, strengths, and weaknesses.
