PERSONAL COACHING

Stefan Mastaller from Vienna, austria 
  Pro Cyclist | Coach | Event Manager | GCN Coaching Expert 
(Google THINKS:)

Let's embark on a journey to achieve your cycling goals together! Drawing from my extensive experience as a professional cyclist, I've been fortunate to undergo a wide range of experiences, from rigorous physiological testing in state-of-the-art labs to “embracing” time-tested Eastern European training methods. I've not only witnessed but also personally experienced every aspect of this journey.

Having worked with clients worldwide as well as consulting companies in the United States for many years, passing on my knowledge and experience to other people has become my passion. Additionally, I am very proud to call myself “GCN Coaching Expert” and consult them on various occasions like their Global Bike Festival.

MY COACHING PHILOSOPHY

I have a deep appreciation for numbers—watts, heart rate, TSS, IF,… but this sport has numerous beautiful facets to explore as well. Striking a balance between science and the human side of things is crucial. I firmly believe that effective communication is the single most important element for personal growth and improved fitness. By continuously adjusting our approach to real-life situations, we can ensure long-term success.

HOW I ENDED UP COACHING

Seven years ago, I started to work on a charity project in which we introduced people to all aspects of cycling and assisted them in achieving their goal: a massive charity bike ride. I quickly discovered my passion. At that time, my role was to enhance people's enjoyment of cycling. Now, it's all about efficient and intelligent training planning and assisting individuals in reaching their objectives.
