TRI SPECIFIC PERSONAL TRAINING - ANGELIQUE JUNE 2007

"I recently booked a bike/run session with Kev Grant – Personal Trainer as part of my pre race training for a challenge distance triathlon. Booking the sessions was easy to arrange via email or mobile in Ibiza and Kev was able to recommend a good swim coach to help me in Ibiza – Ruth Osborn of Ibiza Swim.

Before our session we set off we talked about what I wanted to achieve, which was pretty much time in the saddle as I had not done much cycling and running off of the bike for a challenge distance triathlon in the UK. Kev organised a mountain bike and we set off on a very hot afternoon. He rode behind me on the busier roads giving pointers and directions as necessary which gave me confidence and ensured I was riding at my own pace. He advised on technique for climbing which was a revelation and has helped me no end on my training rides round the rolling hills of Surrey. He explained all about the importance of cadence and advised on heart rate to build fitness.

We cycled round the beautiful country lanes of Ibiza which was truly amazing. I felt totally safe with Kev and his knowledge of both fitness and the terrain. He demonstrated the best way to do the bike transition for triathlon, which I was a bit nervous about and couldn’t quite get the hang of, but at no point did I feel that I was being either pushed too hard or not enough. Kev has a real passion for Ibiza and fitness and pitched the session just right for me.

Off the bike we ran up and down the palm tree lined promenade of Santa Eulalia and Kev explained the correct breathing technique for running whilst keeping an eye on my heart rate. Since returning from Ibiza I have been out on my bike for longer sessions and completed a challenge distance triathlon which was daunting, but doable with a 30km bike and a 7.5km run.

Kev was very generous during my stay in Ibiza helping me book a great place to stay and giving spot on directions. The whole session was about 3 hours and very affordable. Throughout my sessions Kev’s fun, but professional demeanour made the experience very enjoyable and I am now a much improved cyclist. Every time I go up an incline I think of what he told me and I am really starting to get much more bike fit.

Thank you Kev, for making my holiday in Ibiza this year so special. _____________________________
