I believe a lot in understanding my athletes before I start planning for them.

So my process consists of extensive analysis initially where I try to gain as much information as I can to help understand the lifestyle, current health, sporting history, and many more things.

Once analysis is done, athletes are taken through extensive baseline tests to understand their current fitness.

Post which the plan is curated and delivered to athletes weekly where weekly analysis is performed by the coach and feedback is provided based on that.

I always put health first before training because unless you have good health, you can’t achieve anything in performance. Your technique is analyzed quarterly.

At the appropriate stage when I feel some coaching is needed for an athlete on a certain topic, I don’t see whether calls are offered as a part of the program or not if that is needed for my athletes. Another factor I emphasized during my training is movement quality.

You should at least have the ability to perform the following individually but at a stretch: 400 meters proper freestyle 15 mins cycling 15 mins run

You can surely do that, however, your first focus should be learning to swim. Without knowing how to swim, it is difficult for you to build triathlon endurance as well as get exposure to Open waters since you are not confident in your freestyle stroke in the pool in this case.

In today’s expanding world, it is difficult to find the right coach within your vicinity most of the time. Online coaching exposes you to a variety of options worldwide. It is the training system that allows you to train at your convenience with access to a coach.

You select your place and time to train and do the workouts. You get your workouts in a digital format with all the necessary descriptions & demonstrations to make you understand. Athletes and Coaches communicate using preferred digital modes available and set within the coaching system.

To perform any technique analysis, athletes shoot videos as instructed and share them for coaches to analyze and send inputs/instructions to act on.

By performing detailed individual analysis I first understand the athlete and his/her surroundings as well as conditions with the history well.

This is then followed by baseline fitness testing is used to understand their current fitness.

Combinely all this information is used to curate the program for them, having the right intensity and volume of the training which is around their existing lifestyle.

I envision that all my athletes train and race injury-free by keeping health at the core of their training to up the ladder.
