Hey there aspiring athlete,
I am David, born and raised in Aachen, living in Berlin and (hopefully) soon to be your coach.
While studying Math, I started coaching in my local Triathlon club and acquired my coaching license from the DTU (the german triathlon union). Now, my goal is to share my knowledge with you, to achieve the fittest version of yourself.
M. Sc. in Mathematics... can really only be used to analyse the data you provide.
Basic Coaching license... this is what should matter. The DTU conducts trainings for coaches. I did that and I am planning to get my advanced coaching licence as well.
My focus these was on competitive sports.
Since 2020 I conduct training sessions at my local club in all three disciplines. Also in 2020, I started to conduct 1-on-1 coaching for my friends. The biggest highlight there was a 9:51:09 Ironman debut in Hamburg of an athlete I coached for 3 years.
About my philosophy... I do not agree with the idea of an ironman-in-one-Year kind of training. My plans (and I hope yours as well) are focused on a long lasting career in your sports. That includes a healthy build up and realistic goals.
That does not mean that your training will be too easy, just that I do not like the idea of breaking you mentally or physically.
Communication is key! I will ask for your feedback and your well being. If you are feeling down or unmotivated and start to struggle with the training, neither you nor me will enjoy the process. I enjoy a plan tailored to your needs and your capacities.
If you are willing to begin this journey together with me, I will gladly reach out my hand to aid you.
