Event Specific Training program
For the athlete serious about giving their best performance at a specific event.
What is an event specific program?
An event-specific program is tailored to the requirements of a specific course you will be racing on and takes into account your current fitness levels, strength and weaknesses. The weekly schedule is customised to fit your lifestyle so that you get the maximum out of the training program. The first few weeks are characterised by regular interaction with a coach to get the scheduling right.Once the program is tweaked to suit your lifestyle, an event-specific program is self monitored.
How is it different from Individualised Coaching?
Individualised coaching is a long term (year-to-year) relationship with the coach with long term goals in mind. Event-specific coaching involves far less interaction with the coach and is aimed at a medium term goal race usually 4 to 6 months in the future.The athlete on an event-specific program is seeking to perform as best possible at one event and not over many years.Individualised coaching requires weekly (or twice weekly) virtual meetings with the coach.
How is it different from a Training Plan?
A Training Plan is an elaborate guide to help you achieve your fitness goals without too much input from a coach.A Training Plan will allow you to create your personal training zones after completing the first weeks field tests.The schedule is set and you upload our training results to see how well you have complied with a the daily and weekly goals.
Why would you want a specific program?
An Event specific program is for an athlete who already has achieved a moderate level of fitness, probably regularly training more than 9 hours per week, and who has an important event 3 to 6 months in the future in which they would like to perform to the best of their abilities.
