Performance Testing

Through performance testing, athletes will be able to fine tune their training and dial in accurate race pace/power output. Through the test, you take a look at what is going on physiologically inside your body to gain a better understanding of what your needs are and how you can improve by dialing in your training/nutrition with optimal precision. Athletes will discover:

• carb/fat burning ratios are for each training zone

Ben has taken me in a year and a half from novice triathlete to multiple short-course podium finishes and multiple Ironman finishes. He coached me to my first IM time of 11:56:47, and then a year later helped me improve my time by almost an hour and a half to 10:29:33 at IMTX in the suffocating heat. His plans just flat out work. He is one of the best coaches in Houston and does his clients right by putting them first above himself. I could not more highly recommend Ben and the TriFit-XT team.

Thanks to my coach Katie Proko, I was able to complete my first Ironman. After having major spinal surgery, this accomplishment is something that I never thought was possible, but thanks to Katie's incredible coaching, listening, patience and guidence, I was able to cross the finish line with NO injuries and a BIG smile. Katie designed a training plan that was perfect for me, and it enabled me to make great progress in just a few months. She always made me feel supported, no matter what, and the peace of mind, care and professionalism were truly priceless. Working with Trifit truly changed my life, they taught me I can do things that I never thought were possible. This is just the beginning, and I will be working them again for the next IM. Thank you Katie, and thank you TriFit-XT!
