Video Coaching

In another effort to take the camp to you, we are offering long distance video coaching.

Here is how it works: You get someone to videotape you in swim, bike and run. We only need about a 10 second segment in five modes. Have them frame you so that all of you gets in the picture, but almost fills it. Swim from the side , Swim head on, Bike from the side, preferably with your bike on a trainer, but riding by is OK, Run from the side, and run head on.

See yourself and

Send us the tape. I'll review it, take key components, and reposition your arms or legs to show where a better position would be at that point. That segment will have a voice over explaining the movement correction , or if you are correct ,tell you why it is so. The corrections will be clearly understood. Also some clips of people doing it correctly will show how it is supposed to look. This all will be added to the undisturbed part of what you sent, so that you can make comparisons. The edited video will be mailed back to you within 10 days.

You can use Mini DV tapes, DVD, 8 mm or VHS.
