Training Beliefs
It is believed that swimming more is not the only way to get faster. Swimming technique is overlooked by many coaches
in place of more miles because itis easier. With the right combination of technique work and moderate miles Personal Best believes we can achieve the same if not better results
PB Bike Fitting Service
A position on the bike that works for your body is essential for comfort and can be optimized for aerobic and aerodynamic performance, as well as injury prevention. At PB we utilize motion capture video to record and analyze your bike position and to extract various body angles. With this data in hand, we utilize our experience and compare against industry norms in a combined approach to refine your position. And since optimal bike fit is about more than just angles, we spend a lot of time working with you to incorporate information about your goals, your strengths and weaknesses, flexibility and biomechanical characteristics, and of course, how you ride. When completed, you'll have a riding position that maximizes your power and comfort.Bike fitting is not only for when you purchase a new bike but also benefits a rider as we age and our body changes. So consider a fit every two to three years, whenever you change bikes, and especially if you are experiencing discomfort.

PB Bike and Run Zone Testing
An often overlooked aspect of training is knowing how much effort is needed for certain intervals or workouts. As is often the case in all our busy lives we want to maximize our training time to be the most efficient we can. Having the right combination of easy and hard workouts is the best way to do this, however it is a lot harder to achieve the right efforts without the knowledge of your training zone. Personal Best uses a series of tests for cycling and running so we can accurately determine training zones. You can then measure your efforts and be certain you worked at an effort prescribed by the coach. We believe testing is the best way we can help you achieve your goals for each workout and inevitably your ultimate goal, whatever it may be.
