Training with Lisa Helped Me Take 30 Minutes Off My Marathon Personal Recor

If you are serious about improving your endurance, your speed, your form, or need a better training regimen that keeps you motivated and avoids injury, then you need Lisa.  I have been working with Lisa for the last seven months and the results have been incredible. I was becoming frustrated with my middle of the pack status and my recurring injuries. After 7 short months, I am now a top third finisher in triathlons and races and I have been injury free! At 40 years old, I am now the fittest that I have been in my life. My endurance and my speed have dramatically improved. I can now hold a sub-8 minute pace during long runs where before I used to be a 9:30 pace guy on the same distances. I recently ran a marathon and I was able to take 30 minutes off my prior PR. Lisa made this possible.


My Body – and Mind’s – Unlimited Potential

Her focus on cross training, core strength, and heart rate monitor training has made a tremendous difference for me. This has re-energized me and made me much stronger in body and mind. With her help, I am now training for my first Ironman. This is something that I had not previously considered possible given my injuries and past endurance level. She has given me the confidence and the expertise to face increasingly longer distances without worry. I now regularly do 2-3 hour runs on a Saturday and turn around and do 80 miles on the bike the next day. She has really changed my frame of reference and taught me how far I can push myself, and how unlimited the body and the mind’s potential can be, once untapped.

 

Lisa’s Wealth of Experience

Lisa’s wealth of experience in her own racing career makes her invaluable. She has not only given me the training and the encouragement necessary to train at high volume levels, but she has given me incredibly helpful racing strategy tips for different distance races from sprint triathlons to marathons. She has also helped me with my nutrition and provided just generally very helpful advice on fitness.  She is a great coach, but more importantly, she is a great lady. Lisa cares about you as a client. She understands your family and business situation and she adapts her training programs so you can maintain a balanced life, while still achieving your athletic goals.

 

The Advantages of Online Coaching with Lisa

As a potential client of Lisa’s, you may have questions about whether online coaching really works. My answer is yes, but with the right coach. What has made my experience with Lisa so successful is the fact that she is always available to answer questions or help deal with concerns. This is the key. As a result, the experience is the same as if she lived in the same town. Qualifications are also a key to choosing an online coach and Lisa’s vast expertise speaks for itself. This woman is amazing. With Lisa, you get the real thing, not a poser or a pretender. Her record speaks for itself and once you talk to her it becomes abundantly clear.

 

I am extremely happy with my racing results and with how far I have come in a relatively short period of time. Lisa helped me do this. I am extremely satisfied with her coaching and I recommend her to you without concern. She is terrific.

 

2007 Update from Juan

There are several people in my life that mean a lot to me and you are one of them. The impact that you have had on me over the last couple of years is amazing. I am particularly grateful for your confidence in me this year given the issues with my leg. You helped me to keep my focus to achieve my goals - it wasn't easy and I worked very hard, but you were there with me every step of the way. I have had some disappointments along the way but you kept me on an even keel. I was really doubting myself (something that is very unusual for me) after FirmMan in September, and the meltdown in Chicago but your belief in me kept me going. I'm glad that I always listen to you. I did have such a great race at IM Florida. It was a great confidence booster, but beyond that it was further proof that anything really is possible. My 2007 season is now over and I look forward to several weeks of rest, recovery and moderate training before I refocus on the 2008 season.

Thank you for being such a great friend and coach.
