Piotr will work with you to create an individual training plan based on your own strengths, weaknesses and available time, not a cookie-cutter schedule. Since skiing fast is not just about improving your physical condition, your coaching package can include ski technique coaching so that you can ski as fast and effortlessly as possible, whatever your level of conditioning. Piotr’s significant experience with classical and skate ski techniques can help you improve your results dramatically! You may also benefit from expert guidance on race and psychological strategy, equipment selection, waxing and nutrition.
Typically, your training program will have an initial face-to-face or telephone assessment with Piotr to discover your athletic background, current training level and results, specific goals and the time and energy you are currently able to devote to training. You will complete an intake form prior to this meeting in order to maximize your time together. Piotr will develop a personalized training plan for you based this information and will have weekly telephone feedback sessions with you to discuss progress and make plan adjustments.
With Go! Training, you can leverage your specific conditioning with one or a series of ski technique sessions, group and individual training sessions, and physiological testing to help maximize your efforts. For example, adding a monthly blood lactate profile can help you can accurately establish your training heart rates and pace times. The lactate profile is critical in establishing initial training zones and making sure your physiology is changing appropriately as you train. Lactate profile testing sessions will also include time to discuss and demonstrate proper methods of doing the intensity training that is right for you.
