I offer limited slots for athletes needing my premium coaching services. For 2009, I will limit this number to five (5) athletes beginning in October of 2008. Priority will be given to current TomTroutCoaching athletes wishing to continue with me in 2009.

Premium Coaching Plan
$30/week + a 1 time fee of $100 for a goal setting and planning session

Plans include a comprehensive training plan and goal setting session with race planning and strategy dialogue. An unlimited number of questions and dialogue/feedback on your training/racing
progress is also included along with a subscription to Trainingpeaks.com. Trainingpeaks.com is the main form of communication between me and the athlete I coach. I will post your daily and weekly workouts along with comments at this site. This site also gives you the opportunity to record your workouts, record your race results, record nutrition information from your diet, and post general comments about how you felt during the course of the week.

I am also available to meet on a limited basis with my athletes at the pool in Byron Center to give feedback on form and efficiency in the water. I will also hold periodic “training days”, where I will invite “Team Trout” athletes to participate in a special group workout involving swimming, biking, running….or all three sports. Feel free to contact me via e-mail with questions at tom@tomtroutcoaching.com

I also have training plans available for beginner, intermediate, and advanced athletes for sprint, olympic, half-ironman, and ironman events. Training plans range from 16 weeks to 24 weeks in duration. Plans are $10 per week with a minimum plan costing $160.

All of my training plans take you through your base, build, and peak phases with the focus on your “A” priority race of the season. Up to five additional races can be scheduled into these plans with each added race costing $10 to re-configure the general structure of the plan. Once completed, training plans are e-mailed directly to my athletes in a “Word” format. Training plans include workout descriptions, weight training guidelines and plan, nutritional tips and guidelines, and e-mail support.
