Rockstar Triathlete Daniel Alvarez Attributes Injury-Free Race to Training With Full Circle 

Coaches Notes:

I am incredibly proud of Daniel for completing the Full Circle Coaching Triathlon Transformation program with his first 70.3 performance in North Carolina.

He came to me as a typical triathlete, training, and racing as hard as he could on every session. This is a great way to get hurt and burnt out. He didn’t know what he didn’t know. I will never forget his comment after our first bike session- “Wow, so that’s how you train on the bike – I learned so much!”

He was already a strong guy, and getting into shape, we just helped him get specific for the distance he wanted to race, the 70.3.

We evaluated his technique on the swim, bike, and run and improved his nutrition so he had energy for the more extended training session. He has so much improvement from where he started while balancing life as a newly single dad and successful business owner.

Way to go, Daniel. I’m super excited for the journey to the Full Ironman. Thanks for trusting us with your journey – You are a Rockstar Triathlete!

What is your age?

I’m 46 years old

What is your profession?:

I’m an Engineer and work in Sales and Marketing in an online business. 

Why did you choose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey?

I was starting my journey in triathlon and saw Coach Erinne giving a great pre-race explanation and advice. Then, the third time I saw her, I made contact and started the program. 

What is/ was your “A” race for this season?

Ironman NC 70.3. I finally learned how to pace during the race to finish strong with a 6:07- for my very first 70.3 with no injuries!

What are your BIG goals?

Keep training, prepare myself for doing at least 1 Ironman 70.3 every year and in 2027 my first full Ironman race. 

Tell me about your successes so far!

Being able to train an average of 5 days a week, loosing some weight (30 lbs), feeling more active and strong, finishing every race I’ve entered over the past year and having a lot of fun doing them. 

What were some of your biggest improvements in performance for each of the following? Swim, Bike, Run, and Nutrition/Health. 

Getting better at swimming and biking, with proper technique and guidance, significantly impacted my performance. Also, the combination of training, fueling with the right nutrition, and resting has made me go beyond what I thought I could.

My running was terrible. I still have so much to learn and practice; I know it will take time and effort, but I’m willing to put in the hard work and time to improve. I don’t want to injure myself, so technique plays a significant role; I’m learning a lot. I was able to finish the run at the 70.3, feeling strong.

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:

  1. Having team of athletes for support and company.
  2. Having coaches with lots of experience end knowledge.
  3. The feeling of accomplishment after every race or event, make me want to come back stronger.

What excites you the most about being involved in running/triathlon?

The healthy lifestyle, having a moment everyday for myself, train and see my improvement, having a break from day to day tasks.

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program?

Take action, overthinking won’t get you anywhere! It’s time to discover your true potential.

5 Ways to Get Unstuck!

5 Ways to Get Unstuck!

Ever feel like you’re giving your best effort and just not getting the results you want in any area of life?

Or maybe you feel like you just don’t have the motivation and drive right now to transform your body and your life.

If you’re feeling stuck, I’m here to help.

So, here are my top 5 ways you can get un-stuck:

  1. Focus on the next right move. If you focus on the big picture, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. But by simply directing yourself to make the RIGHT decision (the one that brings you closer to your goal) in each moment will add up to big results that keep you motivated.
  2. Devise a reward strategy. If you make the changes you desire and reach your goals, how will you reward yourself (not with food!)? It could be something as big as a vacation or as small as a massage.
  3. Be real about the consequences of not changing. What are the bad things that will happen if you don’t achieve your goal? Let that sink in and drive you.
  4. Make “DO IT ANYWAY” your motto. When you’re ready to talk yourself out of exercising or cooking dinner, LIVE this motto. So often we get lost rationalizing poor choices in our heads. We have to do this to make accepting less than our best easier. Be aware of it and choose differently.
  5. Increase your accountability. A good way of doing this is to ask a friend to join you. A GREAT way to do this is to hire a coach who believes in you but NOT your excuses.

So, which of these resonates most with you? Any you haven’t attempted before?

And don’t forget – if you need help getting un-stuck, we’ve got your back here at FULL CIRCLE COACHING. Just let me know you’re ready text me at the number below. I’ll reach out to you and start the conversation right away.

Yours in Health,

Coach Erinne Guthrie

Rockstar Triathlete Mason Fruit: A Triathlon Transformation Success Story

by fullcircle, posted in ROCKSTARS

Rockstar Mason Fruit

Coaches Notes:

Mason called me around this time last year, right after the MiamiMan Triathlon 2022, where he was racing the International distance race. He wanted to go long and complete three 70.3s in 2023.

I love goals like this!

He joined my Signature Triathlon Transformation Program, and we got to work on all his testing and evaluations. From there, we started training to improve his swim, bike, and run technique and build his aerobic capacity for the longer-distance races he aimed for.

Nutrition and strength played a role in his ability to handle the volume of his training while working full-time at a pretty intense job and being a good boyfriend.

For someone his age, I was surprised at his dedication to the sport and reaching his goals. Most 20-something-year-olds are not that dedicated to putting in the work that being a successful triathlete takes!

Congratulations on all your 70.3 races- you are a true Rockstar Triathlete. Sub 6, here you come!

What is your age?

27

What is your profession?:

Electrical Engineer

Why did you choose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey?

I met Erinne at Miami Man 2022 – and she made me take my shoes off in the grass. Instant credibility!

What is/ was your “A” race for this season?

I did three 70.3’s with Arizona 70.3 as my “A” Race.

What are your BIG goals?

Sub 6 70.3 at Oceanside and Oregon next season

Tell me about your successes so far!

I scored in the top half of my age group twice this season!
Also went from not being able to run without walking to running non-stop during 70.3s.

What were some of your biggest improvements in performance for each of the following? Swim, Bike, Run, and Nutrition/Health. 

Swim: I can swim now! I learned how to swim.

Bike: my FTP went from 180 to 240 (measured with 20 min FTP tests).
And my times went from a 3:30 bike to sub 3hr for 56 miles.

Run: I went from running 10-11 min miles for a half marathon distance with a 180 heart rate to doing the same pace in 100+ degree weather with a heat rate of sub 170.

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:

  1. Having a good support base. This wasn’t always the case, but with hard work and persistence, a good base can be built with the people around you.
  2. Consistent training! 
  3. I lost 15 pounds by eating real food!

What excites you the most about being involved in running/triathlon?

Climbing the mountain because the mountain is there! And being connected to a fun-loving, active community!

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program?

Do it! It will be awkward at first as you learn new skills but you don’t know what you don’t know.

Having Erinne point these things out is invaluable!

Show and Tell!

Show and Tell!

Way back in the day, I remember show & tell being one of my favorite days in school.

The thing I want to show and tell about is my passion for my Full Circle Coaching community.  I’ve been building this tribe for over 10 years, and I am super proud of how far we’ve come and where we are right now.

I’m a big believer in “like attracting like” and “practicing what I preach” by being an example to others. This is how I’ve been able to grow and thrive in this community, even in the situation we’re in right now as well as, watching each and every one of my members grow.

I thrive on keeping up the joy, happiness and inspiration of what triathlon and healthy living can do for your life and bringing this happiness to others. 

Practicing being here and now, by focusing on what we do have control over in our daily lives, how we show up, what we are thinking, what we eat and our daily training habits can have a huge impact on ourselves and the world around us.

I can’t wait to hear what you want to show and tell with me!

So, wanna play?

Do you “Monday” Your Goals?

by fullcircle, posted in Blogs, Mindset

Do you “Monday” Your Goals?

In the history of procrastination, there’s no better time than Monday.

  • “I promise, Coach, I’ll see you starting on Monday.”
  • “My diet starts Monday – after one last weekend of fun.”

Sound familiar?

Maybe this explains why more people hit the gym or the running trails on Monday, after a weekend of lying around and overindulging.

But whether you use the Monday excuse or tell some other lie to yourself, it’s all the same. When you procrastinate working on your goals, it means you’re not really ready to do the work.

Because when you are? You go into immediate action.

Monday’s a liar.

Trust yourself. Begin your work. No matter what day it is.

It just so happens to be Monday! So today is the day to take action!

Set up a call with me to see how I can help you with your triathlon and health and wellness goals!

From Grill Master to Triathlon Champion: 109 Burger Joint Owner Hooked After Jumping In The Pool

COACH’S NOTES:

As a complete new comer to triathlon, Jose had the desire and followed the Full Circle Coaching Couch2-Tri Program to the letter to achieve amazing results.

He barely missed a single training session in the 8 week beginner program and implemented all the training suggestions to cross the finish line strong after some tough windy wavy conditions in the Key West Triathlon.

I am so proud to welcome him to the Triathlon Tribe and love his enthusiasm to tackle some serious new triathlon goals!

Way to go Jose!  Thanks for being an inspiration to those people that may be a little unsure in taking on the goal of a triathlon and showing how well this program works.

*109 Burger Joint, considered one of the best burger spots in Miami since opening in 2015!
Located in Sweetwater on 109th Ave and SW 7th Street, across from FIU.

ABOUT THE ATHLETE

Age:

24 years young

Profession:

Chef/Restaurant Owner/Full-time student

Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey?

After doing research, I saw that FC had a great staff and workout plans for its athletes. I did a skype call with Erinne  and loved her energy and passion. She invited me to a free one week trial and I was hooked!

What is your “A” race for this season?

Escape to Miami in September will be my first international distance race! But I just completed my first triathlon ever after graduating from Full Circle Coaching Couch to Tri Program

Please share your BIG goals:

Like every triathlete my BIG goal is to finish an Ironman one day. Also, to become better faster and stronger with every race I participate in!

Tell me about your successes so far:

I completed the Coach-to-Tri program with Full Circle and was able to run my first triathlon! I completed the sprint at Tri-Key West. It was a tough race with some unexpected challenges but it was amazing! Loved every part of it. My training prepared me well enough to feel confident in my abilities. Cannot wait for all the races to come!

What were some of your biggest improvements in performance in Swim, Bike, Run, and Nutrition/Health?

  • Swim: when I started with FC I couldn’t swim across the pool. After the program I not only learned to swim correctly but I was able to conquer a very tough, rough windy swim at TriKW.
  • Bike: My speed and efficiency on the bike was miles better after the training.
  • Run: When I started with FC I couldn’t run a mile. Now I can run an 8-min mile and was able to complete a 5k!

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:

  1. Having a very supportive coaching staff that knows exactly what I need to become better and to reach my goals. They are great mentors that will always push me to get to the next level.
  2. Having a great team around me that can always be counted on. Whether good or bad I know the FC tribe will be there to help.
  3. Building the self-confidence to believe in myself. Setting achievable goals that will help me grow and become better, not only in triathlon but life in general.

What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon?

I love being part of something that is so much fun and also just betters life. Since I started training for triathlon I have been feeling better in all aspects of my life. It is also exciting taking part in one of greatest physical challenges that we can partake as humans. The sense of achievement from completing a triathlon  is like no other!

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program?

Jump off the fence and into the pool! The hardest part about this whole process was starting. Once you’re in it you will get hooked!

Why Cardio is Out and Strength is In

by fullcircle, posted in Blogs, Strength

Why Cardio is Out and Strength is In

This is blasphemous coming from a triathlon coach where the very thing we seek is to swim bike and run faster – all of which is cardio!

But I’m talking about strength training from a different lens.

We used to think that if we wanted to lose fat, we had to run a lot, or at least load up on some kind of cardio.

Weightlifting, we were told, wasn’t so good for losing weight. It just makes you bigger & bulkier, right?

Well, now we know that’s just not true. Science shows that strength training is more effective than cardio if you’re trying to lose fat.

It also produces a range of other super-important health benefits that everyone needs, especially triathletes.

And, no, ladies – LIFTING WEIGHTS WILL NOT TURN YOU INTO THE INCREDIBLE HULK. We promise. Even 25-year-old guys who want huge muscles have to lift a ton of weight for a long time to get them. And that’s not what we’re talking about here.

The secret to weight training is this: Unlike swimming, biking and running, it burns calories long after you’re done lifting.

It raises your metabolic rate, burning more fat than cardio alone can do.

Strength training also:

  • Prevents injury
  • Makes shapelier, sexier bodies
  • Improves sleep
  • Builds stronger bones
  • Improves posture
  • Boosts energy, mood and confidence

This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do your endurance training too!

Swim, Bike, Run to your heart’s content (pun intended). 

But if you’ve been shy about lifting weights, don’t be.

Let us show you how powerful you are – and how powerful strength training is to reach your performance and weight-loss goals.

Strength is included as part of my Signature 16 Week Triathlon Transformation Program, which focuses on you as an individual; your form, technique, strength, fueling, and mindset.

Through video analysis, metabolic testing, holistic lifestyle coaching, and a supportive community, you will achieve all your triathlon dreams and goals to get faster in less time than with other training programs.

Ignite your triathlon journey.

Rockstar Triathlete Michael Caputa Takes 1st Place

Coach’s Notes:
Michael was already a strong triathlete but not using testing and training zones to train and race. Switching from hoping for the best outcome on race day to knowing within a few minutes what he is capable dialed in his race performance and we got it right first time around- 1st place baby! So proud of you Michael, so dedicated to train and get it in between family time and work- You are truly a rockstar triathlete- Let’s see what next year can bring!

Age: 44

Profession: Sales with Schindler Elevator Corporation Maintenance and Repair

Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey?
I met Erinne at my 1st pre-race clinic for the May 2017 Mack Cycle Tri-Miami. I gained some valuable tips from her and knew she was passionate and knowledgeable about the sport.

Last year, my dear friend, Hunter Tully,  joined FCC and I was able to see him grow in the sport and hear all about the FCC approach. Earlier this year Hunter approached me about joining a team that he was putting together to race in the RAAM (Ride Across America) in June 2020. Erinne is also a part of that team. At one of our RAAM team meetings I was able to share with her my goals and what I had been doing with a part time coach. She was confident that she could help and I gave it a shot. In 3 months she helped me reach my 1st goal. I’m so glad that I made the decision to be a part of her team!

What is your “A” race for this season?
Key West Olympic 

Please share your BIG goals:
50 mile Rim-to-Rim-to-Rim run in the Grand Canyon, Gulf Coast 70.3 PR and Podium, RAAM in 8 days (3,000+ miles 125,000 gain), and complete full Ironman.

Tell me about your successes so far:
I started doing triathlons in 2017. I am a proud finisher of 3 Half Ironman distance races with a PR of 5:33. I have done multiple sprint, international/Olympic distances since 2017 and just finished 1st in my age group in Key West. 

What were some of your biggest Improvements in performance for the each of the following? Swim: Bike: Run: Nutrition/Health: Please include any Personal Records and Goals achieved: 
Swim – Erinne is correcting my form and in 3 months I’ve gotten almost 20 seconds faster per 100 yards;
Bike – proper bike fit and coaching has allowed me to sustain high power for much longer periods;
Run – structured workouts that have focused my training to run faster than ever.
Nutrition – work in progress! 

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:
1. Setting specific goals within the race (race plan).
2. Workouts designed to maximize potential and simulate race day efforts.
3. Having someone to call or text that is willing and able to answer my every question. Yes even the silly and “you should know better” ones!

What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon?
Having an outlet for my competitive nature and the triathlon community. The community is AWESOME!

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program?
You don’t know what you don’t know. Erinne, Dennis, and Dany are experts and can get you to the next level easier and quicker than anyone could do it by themselves.

Time-saving strategies to prioritize yourself

by fullcircle, posted in Blogs, Mindset

Time-saving strategies to prioritize yourself

Managing your time is all about expressing your priorities.

So, when you habitually say things like, “I don’t have time to: exercise, stretch, strength train, eat smart, etc.” then you’re essentially saying this:

My health and happiness are not priorities.

Please, stop saying that!

Here are a few simple time-management tools to prioritize yourself in your own life. Think about how you can apply them to use YOUR time effectively.

  • Just say no. Crazy concept, right? You don’t have to do everything someone asks. You don’t have to take on every responsibility. “No” is a complete sentence.
  • What do flight attendants always say? “Please secure your own oxygen mask before helping someone else.” That’s a good lesson on the ground too. If you can’t take care of yourself, you’re not going to be any good to another person.
  • Wake up 30 minutes early. Depending on your family and work schedules, this slight adjustment could start a chain reaction of time savings. Think of what you could do before anyone else wakes up and the daily rush starts.
  • Limit screen time. We used to say watch less TV, but now we should include Internet and video games, too. I’m not saying you shouldn’t enjoy them. But if you’re searching for time to exercise, you can start right here by cutting an hour a day three days a week.
  • Conduct walking meetings and lunches. If your desk-bound for calls and Zoom meetings, try to arrange just a couple a week while out for a walk. Similarly, if there’s an individual you need, then schedule a time to walk together or while on the phone. It’s fun, social, and gets good ideas flowing. (And, yes, it saves time!)
  • Seize the time you save on commuting. More people are working from home nowadays, and that means tons of time back in your column since you don’t have to commute every day. 

Which of these are you going to try? Do you have any time-saving best practices?

Rockstar Triathlete Shaves 20 Minutes Off Sprint Race Time

Coach’s Notes

When Steve recommitted to training with me, he was really ready to make some changes.

His commitment to really learning what was holding him back and then applying the tools I gave him has been amazing to watch.

Taking 20 minutes off his sprint race time by showing up to classes and Swim Essentials and 25 pounds lighter after a gut healing protocol and holistic nutrition program. He is now ready to start ramping it up for longer distance triathlon.

Super proud of you Steve.
We will continue to make improvements as long as you choose to!

Age: 55

Profession:
Culinary Instructor

Why you chose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey?
I heard from a friend that Erinne was one of the best coaches in Miami so I always go with the best.

What is your “A” race for this season?
70.3 Puerto Rico

Please share your BIG goals:
Training with FC has given me such confidence in the sport that I love even though I have just started doing them in the last few years.

Tell me about your successes so far:
I started training again with Erinne this February and I have stayed consistent. From my sprint race in May to the sprint race in August, I have taken 20 minutes off my time total time. In one month from the Trilogy in July to Trilogy 3 in August, I cut 6 minutes off my time!

I have also been doing Erinne’s nutrition coaching since mid July and have Lost 25 pounds.

What were some of your biggest Improvements in performance for the each of the following? Swim: Bike: Run: Nutrition/Health: Please include any Personal Records and Goals achieved:

I have improved on every level of my training, taking minutes off each discipline, swim, bike and run and of course, pounds. I am still working on my nutrition and will be at my ideal weight soon as the pounds keep coming off.

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the biggest difference in your journey:

  1. With nutrition, Erinne’s gut healing guidance has made a huge impact on how I feel so much better. Also, knowing what foods to eat for my metabolic type.
  2. Of course having such great coaching, teaching and correcting my form.
  3. The support of the entire FC tribe because it is a lot easier to get goals accomplished as a team than as an individual.

What excites you the most about involved in triathlon?
Every triathlon gets me excited to see what I can do mentally and physically and puts me in a better place to improve myself and motivate the people that I work with.

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program?

Just do it. Stop making excuses. Having a great coach and awesome teammates has elevated my skills to achieve things I thought I never could do.

  • Improving your EVF (Early Vertical Forearm Catch) – which is the key to going faster in the water
  • Optimizing your kick speed and efficiency with advanced strength and mobility drills
  • Advanced techniques for sculling and flip turns

Everything we cover in the clinic will result in you becoming a faster, stronger, and more efficient in the water.

And you’ll show up to your next race able to…

  • SWIM FASTER using less energy
  • SWIM LONGER without getting fatigued
  • SHAVE SECONDS (or minutes) off your race times

I’ve only got 8 spots left in Swim Essentials Advanced…

And I’m closing the doors to registration when they’re gone so that each swimmer gets the focused time and attention they need to achieve the results I’m promising.
