As a coach, I will guide you on how best to prepare for hiking, cycling and other activities you’ll do on your trip before you leave, so you can be ready to really enjoy them when you get to your destination. 

We’ll collaborate on how you can find the time and energy to add more activity into the weeks before your trip. I’ll help keep you on track through accountability and encouragement. 

If you have challenges or setbacks along the way – such as illness, injury, work, or family commitments – we’ll figure out how to overcome them so you can still be ready to make the most out of your trip.

Through all of this, you’ll gain strength, stamina and confidence for your trip, and for whatever you want to do in the future!

I was glad to have support and guidance to prepare for my journey. Becki was happy to answer any of my questions and give suggestions on how I could improve my fitness and prepare mentally. – Brenda K.

Adventure coaching is different than personal training in a few ways:

• Adventure coaching is a collaborative approach that helps you prepare physically and mentally for your upcoming adventure. Because let’s be honest, the physical training plan is only half of what you need to get ready for an amazing trip!
• Adventure coaching can be done via phone or video chat, since you’ll be doing the training independently wherever you are. There’s no whistle or stopwatch involved in adventure coaching.
• Since I’m also a certified personal trainer (ACSM), you’ll get appropriate guidance on training plans and exercises that will get you ready for the activities you will be doing on your adventure trip.

I offer the initial consultation for free so you can get an idea of how I can help you before you commit to a package. You probably do a lot of research before you decide if a trip location is where you want to go – this is a way for you to research me!

When you work with me, you’ll gain strength, stamina and confidence over the weeks or months leading up to your trip.

You’ll get personalized attention, guidance and accountability to help you take the steps that are best for you to get ready for your trip.

You’ll have a virtual adventure partner who will help you navigate any challenges you face, and celebrate with you when you overcome them. 

Here’s how one client puts it:

The coaching plans and coaching sessions gave me confidence that I was preparing for my hike and will be able to complete and enjoy it! – Peggy L.

Yep, there’s a ton of information out there – it can be conflicting and confusing, and it may not be backed by proof. You can spend hours trying to sort it all out, and then figuring out how you’re going to actually do it is a whole other exercise (literally and figuratively).

As a coach, I help you by creating a customized training plan based on where you are and where you’re going that will work best for you – which means you’re far more likely to enjoy it AND stick with it!

As a personal trainer and health coach, I’ve learned about how to create appropriate and effective training plans, as well as how to help my clients stay on track with their progress.
