What Our Athletes Have To Say

"I'm on Torbjorn's training program for the third year now.  It’s easy to follow and very focused to make me a faster skier. Most importantly I'm making great progress. My Birke results the last three seasons are 80, 59 and 33 overall. At the Teton Ridge Classic in Wyoming I improved from 7th to 2nd place overall this year and at the California Gold Rush from 29th to 9th overall. My endurance and ski specific strength is better than ever and all my results are improving. Life is great!"
Meiko Hoemke, Salt Lake City, Utah

"Since signing up with Torbjorn, I’ve had more top ten finishes in a couple years than in my previous 20 years of cross country ski racing combined. The program fundamentally changed the way I train and vastly increased my knowledge about how training affects my fitness. The quality of my training has gone way up while the actually number of hours I train has gone down. For someone who’s really busy all the time, being able to gain back a few hours and still race better than ever has been a blessing! Quality, not quantity. Thanks"!

"I signed up for the program in June 2004 and made incredible progress this season. Competitors came up after just about every race and asked me what I had done for training this season. I did almost every workout on the plan and am very happy about my races. I improved by 2-4 minutes in the 10-15-kilometer races. Sign me up for the 2005-06 season!"

"This was my third season on the program. I have made steady progress every year and reached all my fitness goals. I really liked that you changed the way you outlined the program this season to include detailed day to day training suggestions. I’m very busy with my work and appreciated “not having to think “anymore. I’m fitter than ever and want to stay on the program to see if I can reach the next level as well!"
-  Washington skier

" I finally had a great Birkie. It was my best ever race! I can’t wait to next year. Sign me up for the camps and for another year on the program."
- Oregon skier

"The personal coaching changed me into a 10 year old hindoo boy. Well not exactly, but after years of training too hard on my easy days and not hard enough on my hard days this regimen has reshaped my fitness levels. Gone are the days of feeling drained and worn out, motivating my exhausted self into another training session, permitting total focus where it counts, on race day. Count me in for another year!"
- Alaska skier

"I am very happy with the results of your coaching program and how my ski season went. ... Overall, I am skiing at a much higher level than ever before – and that is without factoring for being an “old guy”. 20 years ago I may have been as fit as I am now, but I don’t think I could ski as fast, and I know that I spent much more time training. I also feel like I have a better understanding of the hows and whys of training which helps me balance an efficient program with work and family."
