It may be one of the most important days of your training week; the rest day. Resting is where all the “magic” happens, where our bodies repair from the load and damage we do in training.

The best kept secret in coaching
No need to reinvent the wheel this winter instead ride it!
Not building up the base enough and jumping into too much intensity.
Trying to build FTP (functional threshold pace and or power) while losing weight. These are mutually exclusive concepts!
Increasing run volume and intensity too quickly in the off season to “work the run”.
Not making time for gym and stretching to rebuild from the previous season.
Consuming too many fat calories vs needed carbohydrate energy. (Active athletes need to limit total fat calories as fat calories are 9 calories per gram)
Not keeping at least one swim per week. If you are a triathlete you should do at least one workout per sport per week. Less than this can erode previous training you have done for thresholds.
Not resting enough and planning down weeks.
Going too long, running especially and biking somewhat as well.
Not working your weaknesses but instead working your strengths, “what your good at”.
Failure to advance your mechanical skills in swimming, biking and running.

As the adage goes, there is no ”I” in team and I want to join your team, helping get you to the start and finish lines of your races. I enjoy creating individualized training plans that reward discipline and consistency as well as providing experienced guidance to achieve your goals." —Coach Suzanne Turner
"Consistency trumps 'big days'. Continuously making deposits in the fitness bank, as small as they may sometimes seem, will make a big withdrawal on race day that much more manageable. That said, every so often 'life happens' and some course-correction is inevitable - that's where the TriStar coaching approach, backed by science and experience, is guaranteed to make a difference." —Coach Attila Kelemen
