You train as a whole person
Rachel tracks stress load, sleep and mental state alongside mileage. You stop leaving performance on the table because nobody was looking at the whole picture.
Coaching
Endurance & Movement
You already know how to work hard. The question is whether your plan knows how you live. Most training plans are built for an ideal athlete with an ideal week, and yours is neither of those things.
Another season on a plan that was not built for you is another season of results that were not either. And if you have ever fallen off a plan and wondered what is wrong with you, nothing is. The plan was wrong. There is more in yoga than you have been able to reach.
How it works
Every plan begins from your goals, your history and the real constraints of your life, then adapts as your data comes in through TrainingPeaks Premier. Rachel tracks sleep, stress and mental load alongside mileage, because leaving those out is how athletes end up training hard and going nowhere.
Yoga, breathwork and mindfulness are built in rather than bolted on. They are what keeps you recovering and in one piece.
Your coach
Juggling training with a full life, wondering whether the plan is right, wishing someone understood both the sport and the human doing it. I raced professionally until 2012, as a cyclist and a trail runner, so the training was the job rather than the thing I fitted around one.
The reason your plan will account for sleep and stress and the week you actually have is that I have been on the other side of one that did not.

Getting started
Tell her the race, or the goal, or simply that the training is not working the way it used to. She answers these herself.
Which tier, or whether coaching is the thing you need at all. Sometimes the honest answer is a season of rest first, and she will say so.
Your plan is built around your history and the week you actually have, then it keeps adapting as your data comes in.

What changes
Rachel tracks stress load, sleep and mental state alongside mileage. You stop leaving performance on the table because nobody was looking at the whole picture.
When it was built around your actual schedule you do not skip it. Athletes who used to drift through cycles say this is the first one that held.
Everything lives in TrainingPeaks Premier. Every workout, every metric, every note from Rachel. No guessing whether the plan still fits after a rough week.
Because it is. Restoration is built into every plan, so you arrive at race day genuinely ready rather than merely fit, and you feel better between events too.
No. Rachel coaches first-timers and people chasing personal bests, and the plan starts from where you actually are rather than where a template assumes you are.
The plan changes with it. That is the whole point, and it is what athletes most often say separates this from what they had before.
Who you become
You stop second-guessing the training. You arrive on race day knowing the plan was built for your body, your schedule and your life, and you race the way you trained. What changes is not only the results. It is your whole relationship with the sport. You become an athlete whose plan fits the life they actually have, rather than one apologizing to a schedule that never did.
From athletes
“I came to Rachel skeptical that yoga had anything to offer a competitive athlete. Six months later I am moving better, recovering faster, and genuinely enjoying training again.”
Jamie L. · Coaching Client
“I have been going to start training seriously for three years. Rachel’s approach finally made it actually happen, and stick.”
Chris M. · Foundation Tier
“I came to Rachel burned out and running on empty. A year later I’m racing again, but that’s almost secondary to how I feel every day.”
Alex R. · Coaching Client
“What separates Rachel from other coaches is that she actually listens. My plan changes when my life changes.”
Brianna K. · Trail Runner
“I have three kids and a full-time job. Rachel built me a plan that fits my reality. I’m not fighting my schedule anymore.”
