About
Personal/Team Coaching
Personal or Team coaching is all about optimizing training for the situation. I take great care in designing the schedule to meet the needs of each client. A detailed, personalized training plan is designed for you or your team.
Getting Started
I will send you a link to FinalSurge, a free online service program that I use to communicate information to runners and coaches. It is easy to use, can be utilized with any device that loads internet, and offers options regarding the analysis of training stress.
My Job as Coach
I'll input your training workouts and easy run mileage or kilometers to the FinalSurge online calendar for you to view. In turn, you can input comments about how the training went for you. I will read those comments and know what's going on with you and your training (or your team's training, based on what you input to the calendar). Based on what I read, or the emails or phone calls you make, I will offer strategies to improve your progress and racing performance.
Setbacks/Injury Adjustments
What if you have setbacks, such as catching colds or an injury? I will adjust your training and offer tips on how to manage the situation, as you recover. The goal is to help you return to optimal health, yet retain as much fitness as possible. Because of this, there are no refunds for the above services.
Testimonials
“I've run four races, since I began using Tinman's methods and coaching, and I’ve had great results (including a 5k in 16:16 at age 50). I’m still in the early stages of the new system, and can tell that faster times are ahead. I couldn't be happier!!”
— Kevin Miller
“While my opportunities to race in the last few years were limited due to my intense class schedule as a chemistry major at Lamar, Coach T. always managed to find ways to help adjust my training to my hectic days so that I could continue to adapt and grow as an athlete, all while continuing to keep it fun!”
— Drew Bean
"The coaching system that Coach Schwartz has taught me how to run a better and smarter race. I also like the workouts and feel good in races. Coach is very encouraging and interested in how my races and workouts go, and how I feel during them!"
