Coaching

Coaching is the ongoing “process” of planning, monitoring, feedback and further planning. It is accomplished with an open line of honest communication. As part of your coaching, Plan2Peak athletes use their power meters, GPS devices and the most advanced and complete online training system in the world. This system allows extremely convenient and comprehensive communication between you and your coach. The combination of regularly scheduled phone consultations, daily workout emails, athlete comments to each workout and data files sent through and stored on the online training system facilitates this “process” and keeps it efficient, convenient and constant.

The first step we take is to define your personal goals. These goals must be your own; they should be challenging but achievable and should be well defined. Plan2Peak uses its vast experience to help guide you in your goal setting process.

Next, your very personalized training plan must be created using these personal goals, while taking into account your strengths, weaknesses, experience and resources (time, energy, finance, etc). Only after considering all these variables will your annual training plan be created and set in place and put into motion. Your Plan2Peak coach will then create your weekly and daily workout schedule considering this “Big Picture”, Annual Plan while taking into account your personal and professional responsibilities. Your detailed daily workouts will be emailed to you each day. Each email has the workouts’ duration, intensity (in HR zones and Power Levels) and other very specific information (such as terrain to be used and/or cadence) you will need to maximize the results of each workout. Each and every workout you do has specific goals to help you achieve you goals; you will know exactly what each workouts specific goal is. There will be no more guess work.
Each of your daily training entries (data file and comments) will be then reviewed by your Plan2Peak coach. The planning will then continue with your experience and progress taken into account.
