Hear what current and past Endurance Athletes have to say about what we do…

 

“I wanting to do my first Tri, I was originally looking for just a swim coach. At the first meeting I had with Greg I was totally sold. I realized what a great learning opportunity it would be to have a coach with Greg’s triathlon knowledge and experience. Greg developed a training plan for me and held training sessions so that even at that first Sprint Triathlon I was more prepared then most of the veterans. Through Greg’s coaching my swimming has gone from hacking out a lung trying to complete a 50 to challenging the guy in the swim lane next to me … even if he has fins on. It’s been an incredible journey, changing my body and reaching personal bests that I couldn’t have imagined a few years ago. Thanks to Greg I am now looking forward to my first Half-Ironman. Did I mention the killer work outs?”

“Ben works with me.  He sets my work outs to fit my goals, my abilities, my schedule, and my life.  This allows me to make improvements in athletic endeavors without undue stress in other areas.”

– Rob,  Minneapolis MN

Ben is amazing at teaching technique.  He clearly explains and show what needs to be done and then makes it easy to learn.  I learned so much and imporved every time I worked with him.  His enthusiasm is contagious and is probably the best coach I’ve ever had when it comes to technique.

– Chris, St Paul  MN

“I appreciate Ben’s teaching style and patience with even the most novice questions. My workouts build on themselves across a set period for measurable progress. They are schedule to fit into my life. Ben is realistic; more so than I am about fitness progress. Most importantly, Ben explains the purpose of each exercise. I am very impressed with the skill and experience level of Ben. Experience counts. Go with Endurance Athlete. I am sure glad I did.”

– Mike,  St. Paul MN

“My husband and I met  Ben through the adult Finn Sisu training. When we found out about EnduranceAthlete as a business, we hired Ben to coach our two boys (sophomore and senior) to improve their technique, particularly in the classic discipline.  They meet with Ben about once a week and go over technique, video tape of previous sessions, drills and work on a training plan for the following week.  Ben is on the snow with them skiing side by side, demonstrating and critiquing until they can comfortably demonstrate the technique themselves.  It is great to have someone who can keep up with them!  My kids love it because Ben is very energetic and enthusiastic but also because he can break the lesson down into the two maybe three things that the should think about over the next week when they practice.”

– Kathy, White Bear Lake MN

“…he has this infectious ability to make anything seem possible and he believes you have more potential as an endurance athlete than you probably believe in yourself.

– Paul, Woodbury  MN
Without a doubt, working with Ben is the best skiing investment I’ve made since the day I said goodbye to my three-pin bindings! He’s designed a well-rounded training plan that fits with my busy schedule and leaves me feeling like a strong, technically-sound skier. On the snow Ben does a great job of breaking complicated technique down into simple steps. He’s really encouraging, has a great down-to-earth style, and his enthusiasm for skiing is contagious!
