ATHLETE GUIDE
A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO YOUR
FLORIDA TRAINING CAMP EXPERIENCE
WELCOME
Our Coaches are excited to welcome you to our Annual Florida Age Group
Training Camp. This comprehensive guide will help you to arrive prepared
for a full weekend of training that will set the tone for your upcoming
season.
One of our most important objectives is to enhance your ability to
execute the details. We'll cover nutrition techniques, equipment
selection and maintenance, daily performance environment, restoration,
control of emotions, proper sleep, meeting workout objectives vs racing
them, and the ability to inspire and impress your peers.
Please arrive relatively fresh with your two days of training prior to camp
lighter and orientated towards active recovery.
We can't wait to see you!
Coach Tim, Coach Jackie, and Coach Eric
HQ & LODGING
HAMPTON INN - 2200 EAST HIGHWAY 50 - CLERMONT, FL 34711
Headquarters for Camp is the Hampton Inn in Clermont which is an 8
minute walk from the National Training Center. Please check in to the
hotel on the 13th to be ready for training to begin on the 14th.
Breakfast is included in your stay!
NATIONAL TRAINING CTR
NATIONAL TRAINING CTR - 1935 DON WICKHAM DR - CLERMONT, FL 34711
We will swim each morning at 8am sharp except on Friday which will be
later (TBD). The National Training Center is an 8 minute walk from the
Hampton Inn and is a fantastic facility to train at.
WHAT TO EXPECT
COACH EXPECTATIONS
We expect your best effort to follow the prescribed training and execute
the details. Operating in a squad environment allows us to judge when
recovery is needed versus proactively (and sometimes prematurely)
building it into your schedule. We may schedule and/or ask you to do
additional sessions outside of the squad depending on your needs.
During camp you will have a 1-1 meeting with the Coach of your choice.
PEER EXPECTATIONS
A squad works together to accomplish team and individual goals. Cheer
each other on, offer advice and experience, be safe around one another,
and work together. Give your squad your best.
INTERNAL EXPECTATIONS
Arrive at Camp with your goals for 2022 in mind and how you want to
achieve them. Maximize your time at Camp and leave with a solid plan to
put all of your new tools to work.
This is going to be good.
WHAT TO BRING
DRESS FOR THE WEATHER
Bring a range of running and cycling clothing for temperatures between
40 and 85 degrees. Typically it is warm but the mornings can be cold so
plan for proper layering.
NUTRITION
Please bring enough of your own fuel and hydration for 4 hard days of
training for 4-6 hours per day. The QT2 SAG Vehicle will be stocked with
Gatorade Endurance hydration, gels, and blocks for mid-ride re-fueling.
YOUR BICYCLE
Ideally you will have your bike cleaned and serviced prior to Camp so that
it performs without issue. If your local bike shop recommends a new
chain, cassette, tires, etc; please have them installed. Clean is smooth
and smooth is fast. Most importantly, maintained is reliable.
In the event of a bicycle emergency there are three local bike shops:
Clermont Bicycles, Trek Bicycle Clermont, and Epic Cycles World
