Getting Started with a Grit Coach/Mentor
Step 1
Sign up directly by going to Hire a coach page or contact us first to make an appointment via Skype or meet at a local cafe if you are Auckland based and talk through our coaching levels and process.
If you are keen to meet up first then we go right to step two and answer any questions you might have.
Step 2
We meet up and talk through your specific goals, Training history, Time available to train. Plus a few other key areas to help the coach create an effective plan.
We also go through our coaching process and software we use to deliver the training programmes and generally make sure we are on the same page.
As well as cycling and strength and conditioning we also have a range of specialty partners which we have tried and tested extensively. Its all part of our aim to offer solutions and knowledge to any requirement you may have.
Step 3
We set up your Grit Academy account and start to create your training programme with either your own Training Peaks account or our own programme builder depending on your level of coaching. From here we get into the nitty gritty and you start your training. We constantly evaluate and refine your training. As well as use a very thorough process for delivering feedback to help you grow and learn as an Athlete. This is where the magic happens!
