Coaches are always faced with choices. You can take the familiar route and do what you have always done, following the crowd and yielding to conventional wisdom. It’s easy, and there’s no risk involved—unless you consider long-term stagnation a risk.
My approach to athletic development is a bit different. I use conventional wisdom as a starting point and proceed from there to develop innovative training programs for athletes who want to turn their potential into desired results.
Results like:
- Earning a professional mountain bike racing license
- Selection to the 2006 U.S. Olympic Hockey Team
- Qualifying for the Boston Marathon or the Ironman World Championships
- Being ready to go when the surf is up, while living in Jackson Hole
- Running in Copper Canyon, Mexico, with the Tarahumara Indians
- Standing on the podium at mountain bike and road races throughout the Intermountain West
- Setting a PR at the Ironman in Kona
- Placing 2nd overall in the Jackson Town Downhill
- Feeling the satisfaction of completing a marathon or century bike ride.
- Being faster, stronger, happier and healthier than you’ve ever been.
I’ve got the training and experience to help you maximize your athletic performance.
My approach to training is more than just change for the sake of change. Being innovative keeps me alert and involved with the latest research and application of scientific training principles. I’m always on the lookout for what’s next … nXT, actually.
For me, the goal is to develop complete athletes, ready to perform up to their potential in their chosen sport. To do so, I devise programs that enhance every component of athleticism a particular sport requires.
My approach to training has been featured in Men’s Health, Esquire, Men’s Journal and Ski Magazine; specific workouts have been featured on ESPN’s Cold Pizza.
As the former Director of Fitness at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center, I’m a certified Functional Training Specialist and Certified Sports Hypnotist. I also hold coaching certifications from both USA Triathlon and USA Cycling.
In short, I’ve got the training and experience to help you maximize your athletic performance.
