We provide world class education for the professional development of endurance coaches
When contemplating education, our minds often drift back to our school and possibly university days. However, at Endurance Coach Education, the approach is distinct. We concentrate with a clear objective – achieving superior athlete results through coaches who are not just learning out of obligation but out of genuine desire. This enthusiasm for knowledge is evident in every facet of our courses and their resulting learning outcomes.

The 5 Coaching Educational Pillars
Theoretical Coach Education
Theoretical coach education centers around understanding internal aspects of sports from a scientific and physical perspective. These aspects play a crucial role in developing training programs, determining intensity, and setting training volumes. The teaching approach is often academic and covers subjects like Physiology, Training Design, Long-Term Planning, Bio-Mechanics, Nutrition, and more.
Sport Specific Coach Education
Creating sport-specific education involves focusing on the sports we want to train athletes in and gaining the necessary knowledge to coach them effectively at their desired level. For example, in Triathlon, this could involve specific sports like Swimming, Cycling, and Running. It might also be relevant to the type of race or distance, such as 140.6, Sprint Distance, or Draft Legal. In individual sports, this type of learning may be segmented based on race distances.
Pedagogical Coach Education
We don’t frequently discuss pedagogical learning and teaching, and in coaching, we often assume it’s a given. However, it’s actually one of the most challenging areas to grasp and apply effectively. Pedagogy, when viewed as a learning concept, involves understanding our individual learning styles. From a teaching standpoint, the goal is to find more effective ways to convey information to athletes, aiming to maximize their overall results.
Coaching Environments Education
Whether you’re coaching a team sport or an individual one, the ability to control training and competitive environments is crucial for the success of athletes. Without the right environment, it’s nearly impossible for athletes to reach their full potential, and coaches can’t perform at their best either. How we manage training environments depends on the athletes we’re working with, their age, and what suits them best.
Business Education
Looking at coaching alone, it might seem like business development doesn’t impact your coaching abilities much. In reality, it’s quite the opposite. It takes athletes a minimum of 10 years and possibly 10,000 hours of training to reach their peak. As coaches, we need financial stability during this time to fully support these athletes in reaching their goals. Without this stability, our coaching may suffer, and so will the performance of those who rely on us for support.
