  1. TRAIN4LIFE PLANS

    Inline with my other plans we have two options of every plan as many people appreciate some additional support in planning and adjusting plans. The Plans with additional support are labelled ENHANCED.

    The ENHANCED versions of TRAIN4LIFE plans come with the additional support: 

    1) Whilst these plans are not specific race preparation it is anticipated that some users will also participate in a handful of events or races each year. Send me (via email [email protected]) all your event dates and details at the start and he will adjust your plan to fit these events.

    2) Additional opportunity to contact me for plan alterations/adjustments up to 4 times during the course of the plan when life gets in the way - This way I can help you to stay on-plan at times of trouble, illness, heavy work load, etc.

    This is the route map for deciding upon a TRAIN4LIFE plan:

  2. As humans with a goal or purpose we like to know that we are making progress and moving in the right direction. To this end athletes and coaches have worked on developing the tools to quantify what we do and that we are indeed making progress. Over time this developed into an attempt to predict the future and tools such as the PMC (performance manager chart) were born.

  3. Before reading this it’s worth noting that I am not a lifestyle coach. I’m not qualified in any way to coach anyone in lifestyle. This Part 1 on goal setting is to provide context, or a “why”, for how I set my own performance goals in cycling. Over the years I’ve shared this idea with maybe 20-40% of the clients I coach one-to-one. Some people have very clear ideas about their own life and how it should operate and they tell me how cycling, running, sport, health and fitness fits within their framework. Those people should skip straight to PART 2 (coming soon) Others seek guidance, ask for my opinion, or are curious to know how my personal framework is constructed. This is offered in that context but many people will not need to read this PART 1 blog on goal setting.
