DECEMBER 2015 speed-mag.com LG G4 P31,990 (metallic finish); P32,990 (leather) 159 OPEN FORUM WHERE EVERYBODY SOUNDS OFF Hard to imagine that just five and a half years ago, I was deeply in debt with less than P2,000 in my bank account, with a new baby, and wondering what the heck I was going to with my life That’s just the business side of coaching What really makes me happy is seeing the joy in my guys’ (and girls’) faces when they finish the hardest race of their lives, knowing they did all the work they could to prepare for it, and killing it on the race course This year, Alphas took home a couple of Age Group wins and series titles, and we also got four newly minted Ironmen I raced a grand total of one triathlon this year at Defy 123, but I think I made up for it by winning my Age Group and hitting the Top (or was it 6?) overall COACHING IN THE INTERNET AGE And what this coach would like to see in his Christmas stocking One of the ANDY LEUTERIO speed-mag.com DECEMBER 2015 160 biggest benefits from the internet era has been its dramatic acceleration of normal business processes that would have taken hours, if not days Even counting for lousy bandwidth, we are long past the time when it seemed like ages to hear that grating screech as our dial-up modems tried to go online As a triathlon coach, I’ll be forever thankful to the ‘net and a few brilliant apps for helping me build Alpha Training Systems on relatively low capital expense You see, when I was first starting out as an online coach, my tools were a laptop, Yahoo Mail, and Excel Training programs and logbooks were all in spreadsheet form, and even though I always tell my clients that sexy new gear should be a reward rather than a requirement Racing wheels? A new frame? Electronic shifting? That GPS/HRM with all the bells and whistles? They’re all so much better when you work for the pleasure of owning them, even if you could easily afford them If you know in your heart that you raced your ass off this year, don’t be afraid to indulge a bit Fancy tech toys won’t win you a race… but let’s be honest and say that new toys for Christmas are always a treat So, how should one reward oneself? I’ve listed down some whiz-bang tech that will add a little spice to your workouts for the 2016 season I had a system where I required everyone to send their files—“finished or not finished” as it were—by Monday so I could review and revise everything, it never failed to give me a headache Clients would neglect to email their logbooks Or they would modify the format into their own cute, personalized, multicolor version so I would need to spend an extra hour trying to sort everything out to my style Or their files would get lost in the ether, magically disappearing from the moment they hit Send Then I decided to make the leap and go with Training Peaks Given a decent connection, the cloud-based system helps me see everyone’s programs with a few clicks In a pinch, I can check up on them while on the go through the mobile app Reviewing and revising a complex, personalized training program takes no more than an hour at most, but on average it’s around 20-30 minutes The year I switched to the system, my clientele easily doubled while my headaches were halved Now I have a monthly average that helps to pay the bills and further grow the business, and I even have enough funds set aside to throw a nice li’l Christmas party for my dear Alphas It’s been a good year, and it will only get better /SpeedMagazinePH Suunto Ambit Peak It looks like a normal watch, but has advanced Heart Rate and GPS functionality, syncs with your phone via Bluetooth, has enough battery life to last you through an ultramarathon or two Ironmans, and has an amazing “recovery” feature that tells you how many hours left ‘til you’re fully rested (it’s pretty accurate, too) Oakley Jawbreaker Gracing the pro peloton this year, the Jawbreaker’s full-frame lens provides outstanding panoramic vision paired with excellent fit and retro-cool ’80s styling Newton Distance IV Light, airy, and comfortable, it costs a pretty penny, but anyone who has ever ran in these babies will attest that it is exceptionally fast Brooks PureGrit New for Q4 2015, these trail runners are light but sturdy, with sticky lugs that help you stay right-side-up on a gnarly trail while the BioMoGo DNA midsole gives that famed magic carpet ride adidas Hardware weighted vest My favorite gym toy! Wear it during a body weight circuit and the difficulty level rises by a factor of 10 I especially like the comfortable fit and badass looks-like-I’m-wearing-body-armor look What to wear when burpees are getting boring @SpeedMagazine @SpeedMagazine ...
