Hunter Allen - Legendary Cycling Coach, Co-Author of "Training & Racing with a Power Meter", Co - Developer of Training Peaks WKO Software and Founder and CEO of Peaks Coaching Group.
Widely known as one of the top experts in the world in coaching endurance athletes using power meters, Hunter Allen's goal has always been to teach athletes how to maximize their training and racing potential through professional analysis of their power data. This goes hand in hand with his power meter philosophy that a power meter is a tool to help discover an athlete's true ‘strengths and weakness', quantitatively assess training improvements, and refine and maximize the focus of their training.
CEO Challenges is pleased to announce that Hunter and his Peaks Coaching Group will attend the George Hincapie CEO Cycling event from Nov 3-6, 2011 to provide power meter training and analysis geared towards each individual. Peak Coaching Group will also be providing a Quarq Power Meter for each participant to use for the duration of the camp (with the opportunity to purchase at a discount following the weekend).
Hunter is himself a former professional cyclist for Team Navigators and has raced for over 17 years in Europe, South America, U.S. and Canada and has over 40 career victories to his credit. Considered a great all-rounder, he was able to learn a wide variety of race tactics and skill necessary to succeed at the professional level. He still rides and stays very fit and even just won a masters national championship this past September in the Tandem Road Race with one of his clients as the stoker.
As a coach, he makes sure to work hard to find your strengths, weaknesses and help you improve your skills then develop a realistic plan that works for life." He continues, "It's important that a coach learn as much as he can about you as an athlete and as a person in order to better develop their success plan. Using a power meter can really shorten our learning curve and optimize an athletes' limited training time. I have coached over 500 athletes from newbie's to Olympic champions and Tour de France contenders and I learn something new from each one."
