I'm Bob Richter, a QT2 Systems and USA Triathlon, USATF, and RRCA Level 1 coach. I've been a QT2 Systems coached athlete since 2018 and a coach since 2022. I provide my athletes with individualized, data-driven training grounded in sound physiology, and adapted to the athlete's life. I'm a 6x IRONMAN finisher, World Championship qualifier, 18x IRONMAN 70.3 finisher and WC qualifier/finisher. I've run over 13 marathons and am a multiple-time Boston qualifier.

At QT2 Systems, your training is anchored to Critical Power and Critical Speed testing, and your coach uses StressLogic to decide how much training stress to apply each week, so every session has a reason. 

That thinking runs through QT2.0, our coaching system:

• Critical Power (bike) and Critical Speed (swim and run) testing sets your training intensities.
• The QT2.0 Decision-Making Framework picks the training block that gives you the best return on your training time right now.
• StressLogic sets your weekly load from how you're actually responding, not a fixed calendar.
• Fueling, Strength & Mobility, Mindset and Recovery Systems are built in, so you can express your fitness on race day.

A QT2 coach should always be able to explain why you're doing what you're doing, when you're doing it.

We offer four services on that same framework: QT2.0 1-1 Comprehensive Coaching, QT2.0 1-1 Coaching, Base+ Coaching and Base+ Coach Support. They differ in how often your coach adjusts your training and how much support you get.
