Tri Coach Jon Success Stories
TESTIMONIALS
I’ve spent the last three years with @tricoachjo_ training camps in Majorca and really pleased that his coaching has helped me to complete my second successive Ironman Wales challenge!
The March camps have been amazing – sunshine, great company and a fantastic training environment. Jon structures the week to take into consideration the prep. needed to confidently attack the Ironman build up. His technical knowledge is outstanding and he is always at hand to pass on really useful information that has given me so much confidence, and has ultimately allowed me to achieve back-to-back IMW finishes.
Jon’s had a huge impact upon my Ironman journey and is someone who I’d highly recommend.
Thank you Jon, you are awesome!
Mallorca Triathlon Training Camps was one of the biggest highlights of my Ironman 70.3 preparation!
Coach Jon’s approach was amazing – he balanced pushing me to my limits while providing unwavering support.
His patience and clarity in explaining techniques helped me significantly improve my outdoor biking skills, which was crucial for the race!
The post-camp training program Jon designed was also fundamental in maintaining my momentum. His personalized training plan focused on nutrition, recovery, speed work, and endurance, keeping me motivated as I prepared for the event!
Overall, my experience under Jon’s guidance was pivotal in equipping me for the Ironman 70.3! I highly recommend Jon for anyone looking to sharpen their triathlon skills!
A few highlights:
Bike: Jon has excellent knowledge of the island and planned a series of challenging but scenic rides ranging from 100 – 160km. He tailored these to my race profile and provided a number of pointers ranging from riding technique to heart rate control, delivered alongside a number of great life stories that made the rides even more enjoyable!
Swim: This was an area where I felt like Jon really added value. His video analysis was incredibly helpful, identifying a number of areas for improvement and then prescribing a series of drills to work on them. We trained at a fantastic 50m facility and also had the opportunity to do a few open water sea swims where Jon again offered a number of race tips based on his experience.
Run: I had the opportunity to do a brick run after each of our rides. Tough in the heat but Jon taught me a lot about the benefit of planning nutrition / hydration ahead of the run off to help manage heart rate on the run.
Nutrition: In addition to providing all of the necessary nutrition / supplements to fuel our rides, Jon taught me a huge amount about race planning and recovery and this was an area where he really opened my eyes to the benefits these bring.
Race planning: Jon took time at the start of the week to sit down with me and help plan our training to fit my race profile. I left feeling far more prepared about when and how to hydrate and take on nutrition and he also had a number of war stories to share from his own experience and tips on what to do / not do on race day…!
All in all a really enjoyable week in the perfect surroundings and with great company – would recommend to others looking for a fitness boost ahead of race day.
The swim analysis, followed by technique practice, was transformative for my swimming. Throughout the week, we received nutrition guidance and plenty of advice on preparing for an Ironman.
I left the camp feeling highly motivated and confident about my next Ironman. The accommodation was fantastic, and the food selection was outstanding. I would definitely recommend it!
Jon, the coach himself has a lot of experience and shares with you his genuine passion. He knows perfect cycling routes on the island. You can ask him detailed questions about nutrition, training intensity and race strategy.
On top of that you will have an in detail swim analysis with a session that includes corrections in the pool.
Once again many thanks for a great week of training.
Thank you again for great camp!
Nutrition plan was perfect, Hydration plan was spot on, training was totally worth it, all from you! Couldn’t thank you enough!
I have never felt fitter or stronger and have had great fun buying new clothes to fit my new body!
What ever your doing is obviously working 2hour 46 min for the bike leg absolutely blew me away and to finish with legs that still worked.
Would just like to thank tri coach Jon for a year of professional tri coaching. I’ve just completed the outlaw x 70.3, even though the swim was shortened due to the cold was a tough race with a lot of the best age groupers in the uk taking part, I found that with Jon’s expert coaching he guided me to a great triathlon experience. I am now looking forward to my winter training with tri coach Jon in preparation for the 2021 season. So again big thank you Jon, would highly recommend tri coach Jon true professional.
Prior to Mallorca Training Camps, I had never done a triathlon and was keen to improve my cycling. Jon provided a fun and challenging atmosphere with structured workouts on the beautiful island. It gave me to confidence to tackle my first Olympic (NYC Triathlon), and a year later I’m training for my first 70.3 (Mont-Trembant).
Whether you’re training for an Ironman or looking for some challenging rides, Coach Jon will not disappoint. We had a fantastic week, rides were well organized and the routes were beautiful.
I hired Jon for two months post camp to help me with training for the Ironman UK. He provided me with a personalized plan and helped me with nutrition. I did benefit a lot from this (losing 5kg) and improved my fitness significantly as a result.
Really grateful to Jon for an excellent training week. The variety, volume and intensity was exactly what I needed and he was able to tailor the groups’ needs to suit every ability. Really pleased with the Incus Nova assessment as it’s given me the precise feedback that I need in order to make the necessary improvements with my swimming & running. Can’t wait to return next year again!
What an amazing Week, what an amazing Coach! On behalf of Norway we thank you!
I just wanted to thank Jon for making my cycle in Mallorca so great!
I was cycling solo for a week; Jon got me into his cycling group and showed me around. Great conversations, great cycling between mountains and unknown small lanes on the unbeaten tracks of Pollenca, so we were able to avid the traffic every day,
Good hearted, spot on trainer. Thanks Jon!
