The KLTS coaching difference?

The goal of our coaching company is to provide quality training to all of our athletes. Our coaches not only have USOC licenses to coach athletes, but the education and experience to back it up. We hold a high standard in coaching that all our coaches must have obtained a masters degree in exercise science. All our coaches have raced as an amateur or professional in endurance sports. All our coaches continue to learn by attending workshops and clinics by USOC, ACSM, and other professional organizations. We do not provide cookie cutter training exercises to our clients. We believe the education, experience, and passion that we instill into our athletes makes us different from the rest.

Can I just train with a Heart Rate monitor?

Yes, I have clients that just use heart rate. Due to the cost of power meters not every one can afford them however, heart rate is the next best alternative that can be been used. If you are looking for a good heart rate monitor that is reasonable and has all the bells and whistles than go with the Garmin (Forerunner and Edge). To get the best deal on the Garmin devices click on our Amazon.com button.

What does the name Kinetic Loop mean?

As an athlete experienced in many different sports and as a researcher of Exercise Physiology, I studied the science of human strength, power, endurance, and flexibility.   In the body, with every movement, there is a a specific job for the muscular, nervous, and the skeletal system which are integrated or looped together. Athletes use the body to generate force, a product of strength and power.  Postural distortion patterns in the body are muscle imbalances in the body where a stabilizing muscle becomes dominant and the prime mover muscle becomes weak thereby causing decrease in force, endurance, and flexibility.  As your coach, I will assess the postural distortion patterns in your body as you perform the sport(s), and  I will suggest exercises and training to eliminate them and enhance your athletic performance.
