"Luis has helped improve every aspect of my triathlon from speed and form to mental toughness and endurance. In only nine months I dropped 25 minutes from my Olympic distance triathlon time to a 2:33. The team atmosphere and Luis' encouragement pushes me to achieve more than I did the day before. We simply have a great time training and racing!" - Michelle Wilbur.

Meg Maloney

"I met Luis over a year ago, and he is one of the main reasons why I have been inspired to make running part of my exercise routine again. Since I met him, I have entered several races and he has helped me achieve my race time goals. He is extremely knowledgeable about how to train for events and he takes the time to get to know each individual athlete so he can design a workout regime that best fits his or her abilities. I trust Luis and feel extremely motivated to do my best when working with him. He makes training fun even when it's hard, and ultimately I know he cares about making me be the best athlete I can be." - Meg Maloney.

Personalized training plans are provided and active feedback is encouraged so the end result is a program that fits both my lifestyle and goals.

It is without hesitation that I recommend his program to any person interested in improving their fitness and competitiveness." - Christopher Thomas.

I get a comprehensive work out plan that is catered my specific needs, intelligent ongoing evaluation and adjustments as needed, and constant support throughout the process. The result is, I feel more motivated and dedicated than ever before." - Casey Browning

Maria Bautista

"Luis has coached me through 3 marathons and presently for another one this fall 2010. He is an inspirational athlete and a truly motiviational coach. He pays attention to your needs and helps you get through what’s needed to complete your training for race day. I have seen a great difference in both my physical and mental capabilities as a runner since I started working with Luis. He keeps me focused and positive. Training can be difficult and long especially for 26.2 miles, but Luis takes it one step at a time and before you know it, running 40+ miles a week becomes routine and something to look forward to. Whether you are just starting out or been running for years, Luis will definitely take you to that next level. Thank you Luis!" - Maria Bautista

Anne Maza

"Before I started training with Coach Luis, I was reading triathlon books and gathering information from other triathletes trying to piece together my work-out schedule. The results were mediocre at best. Then I started training with Coach Luis and my training took a turn for the better. Coach Luis provides a structured environment to train and all the support that an athlete could possibly need. First the weekly work-out schedule helps in knowing that my training in balanced and on target for my goals. Second Coach Luis is always available to give advice based on his own real experience, whether it be regarding training, nutrition, tapering, injury prevention or equipment. And lastly, Coach Luis is a great inspiration especially when he works-out side-by-side with you! Books can only get you so far, a great coach will take you to the next level! Just completed my first 1/2 Ironman and already signed up for my next one!" - Anne Maza

Jhon Courtney

"Over the years, I have trained with many different coaches in many different disciplines as varied as firefighting, baseball, cross country running, football, and many others. Simply put, never before has any of these coaches or trainers been as motivating or made the discipline for which I was training, seem so attainable than Luis. From the first day I sat down with him to discuss what I wanted, Luis has kept me inspired, motivated, and most importantly, kept the mental side of my preparation positive. He always brings energy to the workouts and inspires with his vast experience without ever making it seem complicated or out of reach. I look forward to many more years of healthy, efficient, and fun training and racing with Luis!" - Jhon Courtney
