Ironsmith: Tri Fit USA

Established more than 15 years ago, Ironsmith is Austin's first company solely devoted to developing, coaching, training, conditioning and injury-prevention programs for swimmers, cyclists, runners and athletes of all kinds and that certainly includes triathletes.

The Tri Fit USA Triathlon Training program is designed to develop the triathlon skills of men and women of all experience and ability levels, says founder Sarah Scott, a U.S.A. Triathlon certified coach.

"No two people will achieve optimal performances through identical training, so all Tri Fit USA training programs are highly individualized," she says. "The 1-to-4 student to teacher ratio also ensures safety and proper instruction, particularly out on the bike and in the open water."

Tri Fit USA coaching and training fees range from $31.25 to $75 per session, and classes are built around the days, hours and needs of either the individual or the group.

Participants will develop "No Fear" open-water swimming skills, efficient breathing methods, improve cycling form, running techniques, reduce transition times, learn about shoe fit, bike fit and conditioning routines. Tri Fit USA students also receive free access to Ironsmith training facilities for the duration of their training.

"Success in training and racing come from manipulating the four elements of training for any sport: training frequency, intensity time and type," offers Scott. "Ideally, someone should begin preparing for their first sprint distance event at least three months out and an Ironman distance two years in advance."
