I started being coached by Karl at the beginning of 2010.

Since Karl has been my coach I have improved so much, not only performance and results which speak for themselves, but the weekly contact and advice that is given as well. Karl provides advice on nutrition and race tactics for every race I do.

I would like to say that Karl is such a dedicated and committed coach that he always wants to know what’s up with your body , and how you are feeling and coping with training weekly. The online training programme he provides is fantastic and lets you know your weekly progress.

I also purchased a power metre in March which was awesome as. The power meter shows how much I have improved since starting with Karl. My FTP (functional threshold power) has improved by over 40watts, so this just goes to show how much my performance has increased since starting with Karl.

2009 BEFORE Karl:

  • C  Grade at counties racing
  • Auckland Half Distance 15th
  • TT time for 16km- 25mins-26mins

2010 With Karl as my coach:

  • Hub Tour 6th (GC)
  • Bev May 5th GC        including 3rd place on stage three
  • B Grade at counties racing
  • Auckland Half Distance Champs – 2nd
  • TT time for 16km- 23mins


I would recommend Karl as a coach, he’s an awesome guy and really passionate about what he does.
