Right & Wrong Triathlon Training Methods

Tips & Tricks That Will Increase Your Performance & Decrease Your Injuries

I have lectured many times on Sports Injuries, Injury Prevention, Strength & Conditioning and Flexibility Training but I am ready to put my two Triathlon Coach Certifications to use.  The whole reason I got these two certifications was to educate and give back to the triathlon community.  So here we go!!!  I have 44 lectures so far to squeeze into this triathlon season.  Most of these will be Free Lunch-n-Learns on Thursday’s but some of these will need to be combined into longer weekend Clinics due to the content being taught well together.  Regardless, my goal is to capture these lectures and podcast them so you can use them as a resource for years to come.  My prayer is that you will pass this on to others so more may learn from this.  That will make all of the effort worth it!  :-)
