Measurable precision
We look at VO2max, lactate thresholds and running economy. Your success becomes measurable, not just something you feel.
Evidence-Based Performance
I’ll make you a better* trail runner.
*But you decide what “better” means.
For everyone who wants more than just more miles.
More is better? In trail running, that is often the direct route to overload. If you train intelligently, you do not need 100-mile weeks to reach your goals. It is the quality of the stimulus that matters, not the total number of steps.
- Scientific training guidance instead of intuition
- A focus on injury prevention and longevity
- Individual adaptation to everyday life
What “better” really means.
Mental resilience
Trail running is 70% mental. We develop strategies for low points in ultras and technical terrain.
Defining your summit
For one athlete, it is a first finish; for another, an FKT or a podium. We define your version of better.
Why this approach works.
Pragmatism beats dogmatism. My methods are based on current sports-science research and applied to the unpredictable reality of the mountains.
Evidence-based
Every session has a purpose. We use scientific models for intensity distribution—polarised and pyramidal—to get the most from your time.
Health first
An injured runner does not improve. We prioritise tendon and joint health through specific strength training and intelligent tapering.
Practical utility
The mountains do not forgive theoretical mistakes. Training is practical—from technical downhill skills to fuelling under load.
Closed loop
Feedback is not a one-way street. By continuously comparing data with subjective feedback, we optimise your plan every week.
