Hey Charlie,
Oliver Ryan
Just thought I’d drop you a note to thank you again for the great fits. On the TT bike, since coming to see you, I took 2nd at Dunlap, set a 10 mile PR (by 30 seconds) out at Putah Creek and earlier today won my age group at the State/District TT championship up in Sattley.
“I am really happy with the results from the metabolic efficiency program. While I have been a member at Endurance for 2 years, my riding technique and strength have greatly improved; however I have consistently hovered around the same overall weight. During a 5 week ME program I was able to drop 11 lbs and increase my metabolic cross over point by 40 watts. These results have enabled me to ride longer with less fatigue especially when climbing the hills of Marin on my road or mountain bike.”

The endurance training program has been a huge benefit to me during the 2011 season. I did the metabolic efficiency program prior to the start of the season, and this enhanced my nutrition and energy consumption. Being a type 1 diabetic, this was crucial to managing my insulin intake prior to training and racing. I am also a father of 2 year-old twin boys and a busy sales professional who travels 3 days per week. The training plan and coaching from Endurance PTC has enabled me to place in the top 3 for 4 mountain bike races and two,top-10 finishes on the road this year. All of this was done with 90 minute specific workouts. It’s worth every penny!

Wow – Had a bike with Charlie this past week & I feel like a kid with a new bike. Over the years I’ve had a few bike fits but none compare with the comfort & added strength from the adjustments he made to my bike. Not just a great instructor but also a bike fitter extraordinaire. Thanks for the amazing bike fit! You are Marin’s best-kept secret-uber bike fitter

This is unlike any other training I’ve experienced and certainly not a typical spinning class. The combination of instructor knowledge and coaching, the incredible energy I feel all day after the training, and the amazing difference its quickly made in my level of fitness make these classes very addictive. Rather than having to drag my self to the gym, I can’t wait for the next class.

Endurance’s testing and coaching are invaluable. The 9-week training plans are fully dialed into my personal fitness-level and performance goals. The best part though, is the real-time feedback: whether it’s advice on when to ratchet up the intensity, what to monitor for early signs of over-training, or how to smartly come back from injury or colds, the coaching staff at Endurance help me get the absolute most out of my time on the bike.

I can’t thank you enough for all of your help and your quality assessment yesterday. Your explanations and the data left me with a solid foundation of where I am, where I want to be, where I don’t want to be and where I should go to improve. I’ve never had that before so this is like a whole new world and I can’t wait to get started and measure the progress!

Once again Charlie, I can’t thank you enough for all your coaching the last 2 years. I walked in there with a mountain bike, 30lbs heavier with no experience on the road. I am now comfortable doing a 70-80 mile ride at will, I have you to thank for that.

I have been training at Endurance for 4 ½ years – last 2 years getting workouts by email! That has been fabulous. Training based on Lactate and VO2 testing has really helped my overall performance. This year I was able to complete the “Death Ride” due to their commitment to my fitness program. No small feat for someone nearly 70!
