Lynette is the founder of Ultimate Sports Coaching. She is an ex professional triathlete since turning to the role of a wife and a mom in 2017. Being a wife and mom has given her understanding of the importance of balance in training, coaching and family while pursuing personal sporting goals. Lynette has a thorough knowledge of Coaching Science having studied it and also coaching for over 10 years. She is a firm believer in expanding her knowledge so she continues to pursue exercise, sport, nutrition and related studies. She was a provincial and junior South African netball player before pursing triathlon. Her interests as an athlete are half and full Ironman distances and endurance running events – particularly - Comrades.

Lynette has coached many athletes of all levels and calibre and she believes her success comes from true commitment to each athlete.

"Every athlete is unique and can therefore not be coached the same. I look at an athlete as an entity thereby not only working on a programme but I also give attention to other avenues such as nutrition, core strength, imbalances, how well you recover or how much time you have available due to family or work commitments - only then does a person have a clear picture of who you are working with!" Anyone can “coach” generically but it takes a Real coach to ensure the longevity of an athlete – that’s my job, and I take it very seriously!"
