  • A guide to continuous and consistent improvement

    I joined the sport as a roadie who was frustrated with constant plateaus in my performance. Coach Rodrigo taught me how patience and structured training can rapidly increase endurance and performance while preventing injury and longevity.

    - Arturo Gonzalez-Maldonado

  • I’m new to Triathlon and it’s impressive how much I’ve improved.

    He could easily identify my weakness and strengths. Together we’ve been working to improve. I feel lucky, within 8 months of training he got me ready to compete in my first 70.3 Ironman.
