TRIATHLON COACHING

The Fact

YOU ARE NOWHERE NEAR YOUR POTENTIAL

You are smart and you think you know what you are doing. You train hard, you’ve had a coach (or many), and you’ve raced with some degree of success, but the truth is … you still aren’t good enough to hit YOUR goals.

The Truth

THE BAR HAS BEEN RAISED

At the top of the game the standard is now higher than ever. More talented athletes are doing your sport than ever before. So, the competition is deeper, likely more genetically gifted than you and can access all the same free tools that you do. You need an EDGE.

“Gareth coached me for many seasons at the height of my professional Triathlon career. With his help I won Ironman Malaysia and had many top 5 places including at Ironman California, Ironman Austria and Ironman Florida. His approach is deeply scientific yet easy to apply to daily training”

— Jan Strangmuller : IRONMAN champion & Top 15 Pro KONA

The Edge

CONSISTENT APPLICATION

The edge is not just better knowledge than everyone else, but it’s a system that helps you APPLY that knowledge, perfectly, every day and that adapts to your needs to keep you on track and accountable every single day.

The Problem

YOUR HIDDEN LIMITERS HOLD YOU BACK

Your current training is not custom to YOUR physiology and wasn’t built using sports science and lab test data. So, it’s largely generic, comes from a mid-level coach and doesn’t truly elevate you to the standards required. Couple that with your limited time, a flood of formulaic and inaccurate data and less than world-class guidance on how to put it all together and it’s no wonder you’re at a frustrating plateau with no clear path forward.

“Coach G has been training me for many years. I started with Marathon and added Triathlon a few years ago. Gareth develops training plans that are both challenging and engaging, using periodization and heart rate metrics to maximize training value resulting in peak performance on race day. While working with him I’ve gone sub 2.50 to win my age group at the Tokyo Marathon and qualified for the Kona World IRONMAN championships”

— Brian Temple : 60 yr+ Champion Triathlete

Making peak performance inevitable for YOU

“Gareth has been my triathlon coach for over 10 years and I could not be more happy with the wisdom, guidance and encouragement he has bestowed upon me. In large part through his investment in my triathlon career, I have gone from newbie (never having ridden a road bike) to professional triathlete competing in on- and off-road as well as non-draft and draft-legal formats. Gareth is extremely knowledgeable, professional, detail-oriented, results-driven, and at the same time caring, personable, kind, and generous with his wealth of information and experience. He has the ability to look at each athlete as a unique individual--to apply his scientific tools and creative insight into their journey. His perspective is the perfect blend of science and art that is critical in a truly effective coach.”

I WILL CARRY YOU ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS

Working with me gives you access to my entire network of knowledge. I have been lucky in that during my coaching career I have had access to (and learned from) arguably the world’s best-ever coaches, athletes, support staff, nutritionists, psychologists, doctors and specialists. A network that has won hundreds of Olympic gold medals, world championships, set world records, saved careers, discovered new therapies, developed new techniques and reshaped endurance and health for the masses. Everything I bring to the table is the summary of all the greats that came before you and is now available to YOU.

I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH

My life has been a life of sport. Soccer as a child, Cricket as a teen, Triathlon as an adult. A runner for over 40 years and a competitive cyclist since I was 22. IRONMAN, the marathon and everything in between. My father owed a gym when I was 7! I have lived and continue to live a life focused in sport and health every single day.

“I embarked on a journey to do a full ironman, knowing I would not be able to survive doing it on my own. I’m so grateful to have had Coach Gareth on this journey with me. His experience is exceptional (no doubt) but what I love the most is his analytical side. He looks at my data and leverages that so I can be better and improve. He pays attention to details and knows how to push, encourage and propels you to achieve your goal, which in my case was one of my biggest lifelong goals and dreams”

— Gilda Chan : IRONMAN

 FAQs

 

  • All workouts are uploaded into TrainingPeaks software. These workouts can be downloaded into your smartwatch for in-workout guidance. Post workout data will automatically upload back to TrainingPeaks for review as per your coaching tier. Health & sleep data from your wearables will also upload to TrainingPeaks each day. Athletes can leave additional comments about energy, stress levels, travel, etc in the TrainingPeaks comments section. Interaction with Gareth is as per your coaching tier by voice & video calls, text, email, meets and workout sessions. All athletes are expected to train with a heartrate monitor and maintain a daily training journal. Most athletes train alone or with a small and controllable set of training partners who help maintain the accuracy and integrity of the custom training plan.

  • Not at all. Many of Gareth’s athletes live all around the world and travel frequently. Most travel to see Gareth for initial testing but when this is not possible, arrangements are made with other providers in your local area to compile all the necessary data.

  • The list of “possible” equipment is almost endless (!!) but the essentials are apparel and basic needs for swimming, cycling and running including a heart-rate monitor with chest strap. Ideally a Triathlon specific bike with power meter. An OURA ring or WHOOP to track sleep, an H-DROP sweat sensor and indoor bike trainer with power (such as Wahoo Kickr with ZWIFT). Access to machine and free-weight based strength training, track and treadmill. Recovery needs are also key with regular access to massage and health practitioners such as chiropractic. A budget for fuel and supplements.

  • Yes. Gareth’s interest is to work with driven individuals who are keen to hit their true potential and will invest in pursuit of the greatness within them.

  • Yes! The Triathlon lifestyle offers a superb way to stay fit and in prime condition. It’s something that Gareth personally lives every single day.

  • YES. The truth is that you will struggle to do the longer races with such limited time but Gareth will help you maximize the time that you DO have available by making sure that the program is perfectly custom to your life.
