Update from Coach Troy!
troy catalinas Hello and thank you for receiving our email updates!

Last week, I traveled to the Scottsdale AZ Life Time Fitness location to get a performance test for both personal and professional reasons. Personally, I wanted to get an accurate reading of my fitness levels for training purposes. Professionally, I have to 'test' the processes for testing endurance athletes as we begin to pilot Performance Testing services for non-members.  Let's just say that overall, it was a great experience and i was pleased with my results. You can read more and see the results by scrolling down this page. 

I want to remind you too that our Lake Placid Training Camp, scheduled for June 18-21, is still open. Click HERE to learn more and register because it's a blast!

Also below, check out the video about how to change your tire using a CO2 cartridge. Don't get caught on the road without a spare!

Finally, I have given in to peer pressure and created a Facebook page. I've resisted it for long enough so shoot me a 'friend request' if you're a 'facebooker' too!

Train safe and train smart,
Coach Troy
