I have recently signed up with Paul and F4L but I am greatly impressed! I met Paul when we were both competing at the Provence 70.3 in September 2011. I think it was actually my Dad who met Paul first and said I just met this really nice guy and he’s a coach – he could help you! I then got chatting to Paul as I waited petrified and him calmly at the mass swim start of the 70.3! It seemed odd as I reflected later that at the start of that race I was already talking about my Ironman!
I have been really impressed by Paul’s holistic approach to training – its not just about the physical elements of swimming, biking and running – its about the bigger picture motivation, nutrition, strength training, race preparation etc etc!
Paul’s plans are really thorough and on the occasion when I didn’t know what a swim drill was I texted and he sent through a video showing really clearly what it was!! Brilliant! Also his strength and conditioning DVD is really great and helped ensure that I was doing strength training and doing it correctly!!
I’m excited to have Paul as a coach to get me to and through Austria!!
