WHY STEPHENSHELDRAKE.COM COACHING?
I have the highest available triathlon coaching qualification in New Zealand which is the Level 2 Triathlon Coaching Qualification and currently the assistant national coach for Triathlon New Zealand. Through this I have obtained an ability to relate to all athletes, whatever their ability maybe, and have been successfully coaching for 9 years. I have coached elite athletes and age-groupers all over the world including the UK, Hong Kong, Japan and the USA. I have been a Professional Triathlete for 7 years following on from a sports-related double degree from University. Having raced for NZ as an elite athlete in both short and long course races I understand what it takes to compete at all levels and all distances.
WILL IT SUIT ME?
I am able to cater for all abilities, distances and resources. I base my training on an individualised programme as everyone is different, with different goals, objectives, time and money constraints and focus on the long term as I believe success does not come overnight. I treat everyone equally whether they want to become an Olympic champion or just complete their first triathlon.
WHAT DO I GET?
A 100% fully customised training program written by myself for you, not a carbon copy of someone else’s programme of the similar ability.
Please see the different packages that I offer and what you get for each package.
HOW MUCH?
I have a variety of packages to fit everyone’s budget. Each package requires a one off $50 sign on fee for new clients or old clients who have been in-active for the previous six months. There is a minimum 8 week commitment, paid in advance.
HOW DOES STEPHENSHELDRAKE.COM COACHING WORK?
Firstly you fill in a questionnaire so that I can understand your training history, short and long term goals, family and work commitments, time available to train, strengths and weaknesses and so on. Once this has been forwarded back to me I analyze it and come up with a plan of attack. From here depending on what programme package you have decided on taking will determine the type and amount of feedback I give.
HOW DO I PROCEED?
Fill in this questionnaire and email back to me at stephensheldrake@xtra.co.nz, I will then be in contact very shortly.
