The platform organises the training. Your coach provides the judgement, context and human connection.

More than an automated training suggestion.
Automated workout recommendations are genuinely useful. They keep athletes moving, add structure and make training easier to start. Personal coaching simply adds the things an algorithm cannot see.
- ·Knowledge of your long-term goal
- ·Understanding of work and family commitments
- ·Your training history and previous injuries
- ·Context around illness, travel and fatigue
- ·Confidence and motivation
- ·Race strategy and pacing
- ·Accountability and direct feedback
- ·The ability to change the plan when life changes
Your device records what happened.

Common questions.
What is TrainingPeaks coaching?+
TrainingPeaks coaching means your personalised sessions are planned, delivered and reviewed inside TrainingPeaks. You see what to do and why, your completed training uploads automatically, and your coach reviews the data and your comments before shaping the week ahead.
Does TrainingPeaks connect with Garmin?+
Yes. Garmin devices connect to TrainingPeaks so planned workouts can appear on your watch or head unit and completed activities upload back automatically.
Can I use Wahoo, Zwift or Apple Watch?+
Yes. Wahoo head units, Zwift and Apple Watch setups are all supported alongside Garmin, along with other compatible platforms and devices.
Do I need TrainingPeaks Premium?+
[TO CONFIRM BEFORE PUBLISHING] Whether a TrainingPeaks Premium subscription is required or included will be confirmed before this answer is published.
Is TrainingPeaks suitable for beginners?+
Yes. Beginners usually only need the calendar view: open today, read the session, complete it. We set it up together on your Discovery Call, and you can start with a beginner-focused plan through our beginner coaching.
Will my workouts appear on my device?+
On compatible devices, yes. Structured sessions sync across so your watch, head unit or trainer guides you through each interval, and you simply follow the prompts.
What happens if I miss a workout?+
Nothing dramatic. Tell me what happened and the week is adjusted. Consistency over months matters far more than any single session.
Is this an automated training plan?+
No. Every plan is written for you and adjusted by a coach. TrainingPeaks is the delivery platform, not the decision maker.
Can my program be adjusted around work and family?+
Yes, and it should be. Training is built around your working week, your family commitments and your travel, then reshaped whenever life changes.
Has Garmin acquired TrainingPeaks?+
Garmin announced its acquisition of TrainingPeaks in July 2026. Nothing changes for Col de Sud athletes right now. Coaching continues to be delivered through TrainingPeaks exactly as it is today.
How is remote coaching different to in-person?+
In practice, very little. Programme design, communication and adjustments are identical. TrainingPeaks gives me visibility on every session as if I were riding next to you.
Which timezones do you work with?+
Most athletes are in Australia and New Zealand, but Col de Sud supports athletes globally. Communication is asynchronous and messages are answered within 24 hours.
Can we still speak face to face?+
Yes. Discovery Calls and periodic reviews are video calls.
Your device can record the journey.
