James Fletcher on technique, endurance and life as a GB Age Group Triathlete

Posted by Matt Moran on Jan 18, 2012

As 2011 came to a close we managed to grab a few minutes with Vivelo–Inverse CyClaim RT and GB Age Group triathlete James Fletcher to hear about how his 2011 season had gone and what his plans were for 2012.  He also gave us some insight into how he is structuring his training on the Wattbike and combining that with outdoor road cycling sessions.

James had previously spoken to us about how he was using the Wattbike to help improve his pedaling technique and with almost 2 years training on a Wattbike he's pretty much got that nailed, although he would be the first to admit that he still uses the Polar View to check his technique is holding good form.  We're sure that his coach might have something to say if he's found not keeping an eye on the fantastic technique he's built up - his coach goes by the familiar name of Eddie Fletcher!

He's off to Israel for the 2012 ETU Triathlon European Championships in April and will be getting a good mix of Wattbike and on-road sessions in prior to the event.  Good luck to James and we look forward to catching up with him post-Israel!
