Data Driven-Athlete Focused

If you’ve followed a plan to the letter — hitting workouts, nailing zones — but still felt like something wasn’t clicking, you’re not alone. Most training plans assume athletes respond the same way. They don’t. Your physiology determines what training will actually move the needle.

Think of your physiology like a house. How it’s built determines how much power you can access — and how long you can sustain it.

🟢 AEROBIC (Diesel)

Massive endurance

Struggles to raise ceiling and access top-end power

Often under-trains intensity

🔵 BALANCED

Strong aerobic base and usable power

Responds well to structured variety

Often stagnates with generic plans

🔴 ANAEROBIC (Dragster)

Explosive power and high VO₂

Limited durability

Fades late without targeted aerobic development

FAQ’s

How long does the assessment take?

The assessment is a series of six tests, two for each discipline, done over a period of one week.

Do I need special equipment?

Power meter or smart trainer recommended for bike, and a smart watch for the swim and the run: we’ll confirm what you have during booking.

Is this for beginners or advanced athletes?

Both. The goal is to match training to physiology at any level.

Can my archetype change?

Yes — it can shift through a season as we build different capacities and you may be one archetype on the bike but a different archetype on the run. That is why it is important to know what your archetype is in each discipline.
