CAB4 TRIATHLON • PHILOSOPHY

BUILDING BODY, MIND AND SPIRIT
Discover Your Passion, Unwrap Your Potential, Share with the World!

Build a Life Experience! Those words on our home page underscore everything that we talk about and believe in at CAB4 Triathlon. And it is how we approach our coaching and training. Build a Life Experience! To help you do this our coaching programs are wrapped around a Body, Mind and Spirit model.

We believe that there is more to be trained than just the physical body. Holistic is quite a buzz word these days but it does fit in this case. We believe that for you to have the most effective, the most enjoyable and the most rewarding experience possible, your body, your mind and your spirit all need to be actively engaged in this process so that, during your race, in the middle of that excruciating climb or maybe when you’re feeling pinched and penned-in during the swim by the many swimmers all around you, you can calmly and efficiently analyze the situation and find an avenue away from that particular stress. Your spirit can buoy your flagging energies during this time of stress with the proverbial ‘I can do this! I am strong, I am capable, I am trained for this!’ mantra. And your physical efforts are supported and strengthened to continue.

Other aspects that we think are important to your success as a triathlete-in-training are proper rest and recovery. This is so important. Even during your heavy days of peak training, there needs to be some time away from your training as well as time away from your job – some time where you can relax and step away from things for a while and rejuvenate. You do come back stronger for having taken this brief recovery time.

Nutrition! You need it, you gotta have it, it needs to be effective to the purpose intended – participation in a long and often grueling endurance event. The importance of healthy eating habits obviously goes way beyond participating in a triathlon though. We will help you develop those habits.

Fun! You have to enjoy what you’re doing whether it’s participating in a triathlon, climbing a mountain, playing a musical instrument, you have to enjoy doing it to get the most out of that activity. We will coach you through your triathlon program keeping that in mind at all times.

Finally, we believe that we are each a unique and special individual, blessed with a unique and special combination of talents and energies. We want to help you in your training by enhancing those gifts of yours. Meshing those with accepted proper techniques within each sport we believe will bring out the best performance FOR YOU! And that is what this is all about. It is all about you! Let’s get started building a life experience – one that you won’t soon forget.
