Great 121 swimming improvement session. I'd picked up a lot of things from youtube up until that point that actually made what I was doing worse , simply because I... read more could not visualise what I was doing wrong, so I ended up doing the wrong things to 'correct' it. Paul was very helpful in identifying issues with my swimming technique and gave me specific drills/pointers to improve. The video footage enabled me to visualise the issues, act upon the advice given and make some immediate improvements. Paul used underwater headphones to keep me on track with practising the drills through the session which was a huge help too. I would highly recommend.

March 3, 2024I started with Paul at F4L Triathlon Coaching earlier in the year after deciding to take my triathlon to the next level and finish the races with more of a... read more purpose than just finishing the race. Paul has had me on a program which suits my ability’s as well as accommodating my work and family commitments. Communications are easy and precise and i have found that when ever i have questions or need guidance Paul is there to respond. My performance is increasing all the time and only just recently i managed a podium which i would never have believed possible. Not only is Paul’s training effective its fun. I was always in two minds before using a coach to whether its worth it or not. Paul has guided me to the point where i really cant believe i went that long without a coach. Im excited for my future in the sport with F4Ltriathlon coaching and with Paul as my coach. Massive thumbs up for Paul.

So many athletes train alone or follow a set plan, and wonder why they underperform at their big race, get sick leading up to the event, or acquire an injury in training.
Finding a way to balance your life around your training, keeping consistent, and training sustainably is key - and the way to do that is with our expertly-crafted, personalised plans.
No one can do their best without first knowing what their best is.
Our coaches offer so much that you just don't get alone:
Expertise - your coach has spent years learning their craft and developing their skills, experience, philosophies and knowledge.
Goal Setting - seeing so many athletes over the years means a clear understanding of realistic and manageable targets, and therefore a better way to reach your peak.
Care - your coach is there to give you constant advice, support and encouragement - and you don't get that alone.
Time Management - most F4L Triathletes end up training less hours and racing faster!
Your coach will include group sessions into your programs as social interaction, which is incredibly important to achieving your goals.
We have helped nurses, midwives, firemen and many other shift workers reach their peak. Your coach will work around your availability to create a training program specific that works not only for your body, but for your lifestyle.
