Performance Analysis
Motivation and Support
Joining Focused Training just a month ago has been a game-changer for me as I prepare for the Mnweni Drakensberg Marathon in 2024. The structured approach and personalized guidance have propelled me to achieve my fastest 10km time yet. The progress I've made in such a short time is incredibly motivating and instills a newfound confidence as I embark on my first marathon journey. Focused Training has not only helped me improve my performance but has also instilled a sense of belief in my abilities. I'm grateful for the support and expertise that's pushing me towards my goals with each stride.
Focused Training has been instrumental in my cycling journey over the past two years. With their tailored programs and expert guidance, I've experienced a remarkable FTP increase of over 30%. This improvement played a pivotal role in my qualification for the Ironman 70.3 World Championships in 2022. Their dedication to optimizing performance and pushing boundaries has truly transformed my cycling abilities. I owe a great deal of my success to the exceptional coaching and support provided by Focused Training.
For the last 20 years, I have been interested in endurance sports and have completed three full Ironman, multiple 70.3s, 6 Comrades, 3 Cape Epics, Joberg2c’s, and many other multistage mountain bike races. Two years ago, I asked Charl to start coaching me . I’ve grown up and have a background in sports, but having a coach has changed my perspective ultimately, I’ve always had the motivation to train, and I’ve trained accordingly, but since I’ve been under the guidance of Charl my results have improved exponentially instead of aimlessly running or cycling I’m now focused on specific energy systems, intensity. My recovery is a lot better, and I trained with a lot more purpose. The results speak for themselves because the older I get, the better I do at these events. The only difference is that I now have a coach.
I became a triathlete about 6 years ago. Mainly because I get bored quickly, I thought that doing three disciplines would change that; I was right. I soon discovered however that training for all three disciplines simultaneously was not that easy. That's when Charl from Focused Training came to my rescue. Detailed programs were developed according to my personal goals. Not only did I receive the programs, but continuous monitoring ensured that programs were tweaked as I progressed to provide optimal training. I went from a VO2 max of a mere 44 to 58! I crushed the half ironman’s I entered and most importantly, it was enjoyable because I was ready. I would recommend Focused Training any day any time to anyone!
