What’s a Skills Camp?

Camp Highlights Include:
✔ In-depth swim mechanics & analysis
✔ VO2 max bleep testing
✔ Bike handling and confidence drills
✔ Form running and core strength work
✔ Heart rate training & fueling strategy
✔ Transition clinic and race planning
✔ Nutrition insights & “A Race” periodization tips
…and so much more!
Plus we’ll hook you up with swag like a Cal Tri hat, t-shirt, race belt, swim cap, snacks, hydration, and other goodies to fuel your success.
