How a Good Triathlon Coach can help

When you are looking for a good triathlon coach you should look for someone with experience. This will give them an edge and the actual knowledge needed to train others. This can better feed into their triathlon training plans. It is also a good idea to look for someone who has experience with training people from all different fitness levels and experience levels.

Making sure you are ready

Any decent coach will make sure you are fully ready for the race before you enter. A triathlon consists of running, cycling and swimming and you will need a coach able to coach in all of those. If you are training for a specific race you need a coach to come up with a tri training plan that is tailored to that race. They will consider your fitness as well as skill and help build your endurance. Training to get you ready should be specific to you and your starting level and your goals.

What kind of time can you commit to training?

A huge factor in all triathlon training plans is how much time and energy you have to commit to the training. If you can commit some time every day to a schedule then a coach can draw up something that suits you. If between work and home life, you need something that is less often than you need to let them know. Parents with jobs are going to have less energy or time to commit then someone single and not working. A coach will also consider short term versus long term schedules and make adjustments when something changes.


Setting achievable short and long term goals

It is important that the coach sets short and long term goals that are really something you want to achieve and are something you can achieve.

Summary

When a coach comes up with a tri training plan it should be from a place of experience and knowledge. You do not want someone just downloading something off the internet. Find a coach that spends time on your building your fitness, strength and endurance over a period of time, and sets goals you are excited about.
