What some of our athletes have to say
Chris provided a great route map for me through the usual challenges which occur prior to any event: work, illness, family etc, and adapted my sets and sessions without any drama.
​
He supported these changes with reassuring words that I was still making the progress required, not to panic and trust the process.
Training for an Ironman can be a lonely activity and anexperienced knowledgeable supporting voice through that journey was invaluable tome ultimately achieving my objective.
Gordon Knott, Efficient Endurance Athlete
"My training has become much more targeted and I feel a greater motivation for my sessions than I have ever done before.
​
I have definitely shown a significant progression and I couldn't be happier with my recent race performances."
Abbie Dickens, 1:1 Coached Athlete
"I used an Efficent Endurance 3 month training plan.​ I found this super useful and without it I don’t feel I would have made the improvements I have.
​
It provides you with a super detailed plan of each workout session and why you are doing it.
​
I will be training with Efficient Endurance again this month and definitely will be again in the future."
