The coaching
works on the premise that each
mountaineer has their individual needs to develop within
a progressive and flexible programme of training in their
quest for the development of Extreme Endurance; Therefore
the team is select and small!
Select, regardless
of ability, in that only well-motivated athletes with a true
embracing of the ethics and
spirit of training for mountaineering are chosen from the
numerous applicants.
Small in that
the above can only be achieved with small numbers due to
the time and attention to detail required to produce best
performance from an individual.
Stage 1 is a
physiological and psychological screening in order to develop
the right programme for development. Team
members cannot enter the programme for less than a year,
as short-term development needs a consolidation period to
re-enforce and establish the gain. A
programme of Macro, Mesa and Micro cycles are negotiated
with short and long term annual goals determining how the
Development of Extreme Endurance is achieved.
