The Power of Nutrition

Come join me March 11th at 6:30 PM at Zane's Cycles in Branford where I will give a free lecture on how to improve your nutrition for better health and peak performance in endurance events. Often I find athletes focus on training but forget about nutrition and recovery - two very important components for performing at your best!

"Kelli - Just wanted to let you know that I have finally decided to try your nutrition ideas. I have refined my eating habits to include always making sure to eat within the first 30 minutes following a workout and also making sure to drink my sports drinks during longer workouts. It is amazing how much of a difference this has made in both my post race recovery and also my power and speed during each workout. I truly believe I am now running almost a half a mile faster because of it. Thanks for the tip!" George D.

How You Can Improve Your Biking Leg of the Triathlon

Coach Kelli Montgomery can show you how you can improve your biking leg of a triathlon.

In most races you spend the most time on the bike compared to the other two disciplines. By learning how to ride efficiently and by becoming stronger you can have a faster bike leg setting you up for a better run too!

I will talk about what type of bike, strength, and flexibility workouts you need to do to help improve your cycling leg specifically for triathlon. I will also go over pedal stroke efficiency and participants will work on their pedal stroke using the Computrainer software available at the Connecticut Cycle Center. The workshop will consist of an hour lecture, 1 hour workout, and a half hour for Q&A. Beginners to experienced can benefit from this workshop. Space is limited so don't wait to sign-up!
