Coaching Philosophy:

It’s all about time, isn’t it? I once heard this quote; “Success is making your minutes, hours, days, and months add up to a good life”. So if there’s only 24 hours in a day and you want to be an Ironman, how & when do you find time to train? Every individual sacrifices something in their life when they decide to do something truly significant. Good coaching makes training worth the sacrifice by keeping you focused, consistent, and successfully moving toward your goal. Managing your time and working to make you happy, is my goal.

Background:

Like most athletes, since I was a kid I loved any type of athletic event and still to this day I find myself watching sports and thinking, “How do they train and develop their talent to be the best”? Athletics has been a huge part of my life and has taken me all over the world while playing hockey. Later, I began running but after a few years I needed more competitive sports in my life which led me to triathlons. After a few short races I still needed more and I signed up for my first Ironman. The minute I finished I was thinking of ways to improve in all 3 disciplines. Training and racing with the fastest triathletes in the country got me faster, but then I would plateau. As a result I began to research new training methods like heart rate monitors, periodization, better nutrition and eventually power meters. The more I raced the faster I got. After 8 successful years of triathlon racing I decided I needed to try other endurance events. This led me to my love of multiday events and ultra racing.

Getting Started:

Earthman gets his athletes started by asking many questions about their current fitness level, nutrition and time. Next an assessment is made analyzing training files. Then a determination is made about how much time and energy you need to achieve your goal.

Daily and monthly workouts are planned, keeping in mind your time constraints. Each day is planned with the optimal level of intensity according to Training Peaks WKO outcomes and measurements. Recovery days, time in the gym, swimming, biking and running are all taking into account and scheduled.
