I just completed IMFL for my 1st IM and wanted to send a note of thanks for your help via your IronFocus CD! The mantra of "Gut Check Time" kept ringing in my head as I ran that last 10k. All in all your CD was one of the primary reasons I was able to finish in the top 30% of both overall and my age group (M40-44). I figure that was pretty good for a "non-athlete" who ran (the whole thing, btw) his first marathon as the last leg of his first IM!! Again, thanks for the training tool...it made my first Iron-experience an absolute blast!!

IM Finisher
Hey Coach: I can attest the brutal conditions at IM Wisconsin. I would like to thank you for helping me make it through. Recalling all of the Spinerval sessions of "Mental Toughness" and "Tough Love", along with listening to your Ironfocus CD, I was able to muster up the correct mental attitude to finish the race, and feel good about the results. Thanks again!

As a long-time runner and fitness enthusiast, but new to the world of cycling, I appreciated the attention and expertise provided at the recent Tucson Training Camp. Coach Troy was an incredible source of knowledge and motivation, giving newcomers to the sport as much attention as provided to the more experienced athletes. The camp was a fantastic learning and training experience, as well as being a great deal of fun. I came away with a renewed sense of training purpose and motivation, in addition to making a number of wonderful friendships. I look forward to attending again next year, and would encourage anyone interested in cycling or multi-sport to attend one of Coach Troy's camps!

I just want to say that I have been a home video exerciser for about 20 years. YIKES!! I have all the series from t.v. & others you find only on line. I would just like to say out of everthing out there, there is nothing like Spinervals! They all Rock. Coach Troy is the best motivator out there. He should really be proud of himself! I feel like a triathlete myself every time I complete a Spinervals workout. Keep up the fantastic workouts. Thanks.
