Avoiding The Gray Zone

This blog is going to be a quick concept talk on my approach to training athletes. This concept is used by a lot of coaches, particularly in triathlon training. I find the concepts make a lot of sense for any endurance endeavor. So what exactly is the “Gray Zone.” The typical “Gray Zone” athlete is… Continue reading Avoiding The Gray Zone

For the past 4 years I have run mainly on my own and have had poor success due to injuries. I have been with Nate for nearly 3 months now and I have not only stayed healthy but I have also seen some tremendous results. He knows what he is doing as a coach and I think this stems from him being a runner himself for quite some time now. He also knows the physiological component to running due to him having a Masters degree in Exercise Physiology. For anyone who is just starting running or is an experienced runner, I firmly believe that Nate Grimm is a phenomenal fit. Dillon Planking

Honestly, I don’t know where I would be without Nate. I might still be running, but there’s no way that I would be running as safely or as effectively as I’ve been this year without his knowledge and guidance. Nate is an experienced expert runner and exercise physiologist and I’ve been very grateful to have him as my coach. With the help of his teaching and training plans, I was able to cut my 10k time from over 61 minutes to just over 43 minutes.

But the significantly improved race times, functional warm-ups, different paces and strength and mobility work were only part of what I learned by training with him. While of course I experienced many physical benefits from Nate’s running workouts, I literally believe that he has helped me become a better, more disciplined person. Running has improved all aspects of my life from my happiness, daily energy levels, interactions with coworkers and other non-physiological factors. By staying motivated and on track through his clearly laid out training plans, Nate has helped fuel my passion and desire to run and never stop running.

Instead of suffering an injury or becoming burnt out too quick by running on my own, Nate encouraged me to learn more about running and the incredible benefits it offers people. By breaking down the exercise mechanics and physiology in a way that’s easy to understand and relating it to my workouts, it made each run so much more meaningful knowing what’s happening and why I’m doing it. I’m proud to have Nate as my running coach, and I highly recommend his services – especially if you’re a new runner or ‘just catching the bug.’
