More conversation around the decisions that matter.

Elite is for athletes who will use close contact with their coach: weekly strategy calls and same-day messaging seven days a week, alongside a personal plan and weekly training review. TrainingPeaks Premium is included. Local athletes also receive four 60-minute in-person sessions total, arranged with Breno.

Is Elite the right fit?

You want to talk through training decisions every week, need weekend communication, and will use more frequent feedback. The name describes the support tier—not a required race time, professional status or guaranteed result.

If monthly strategy calls and weekday messaging cover your needs, Performance may be the better fit. You do not need Elite simply because your race is long or your goal is ambitious.

Compare all three tiers

How are weekly calls different from a weekly review?

The review is my assessment of your training and feedback. A strategy call gives us time to discuss the decisions together: the next block, a race effort or a difficult week. Bring the question behind the numbers so the conversation leads to a clear priority.

What does same-day messaging mean?

Elite includes same-day messaging seven days a week. It does not mean continuous live monitoring, an instant response during a workout or emergency support. Use messages to share context and request a training decision; urgent medical concerns need appropriate medical care.

How do the local sessions work?

Four 60-minute in-person sessions total are included for local athletes. They do not renew every billing cycle. Discuss your location, scheduling and the focus of the sessions with Breno before relying on them in your plan. Online coaching does not promise travel, race attendance or an automatic replacement benefit.

An example: making the race week simpler

Suppose weather or travel changes your race-week routine. Use the weekly call to discuss the priorities and messaging to raise the specific changes as they happen. The aim is to agree on decisions you can execute. Elite does not guarantee a finishing time, a qualifying place or an on-site coach.

Getting started

Bring your real week.

After checkout, coaching begins with an intake and a training schedule agreed with Breno. Before the first block, prepare:

Your event calendar and the decisions that benefit from weekly conversation.
A realistic time for strategy calls and your preferred communication routine.
If you are local, your location and the goals for the four included sessions.

Tell me about limitations and relevant professional guidance, as well as your goal. Coaching does not replace medical assessment. If your start date or roster availability is essential to your decision, discuss it before payment.

Total roster capped at 15; Elite capped at 4. Current openings are confirmed individually.
