Hello my Name
is Michael Krell

Triathlon is my passion – formerly as an athlete with numerous sub-9 long-distance triathlons and several participations in the Ironman Hawaii, now as a full-time triathlon coach.

For over 20 years, as a licensed DTU-A coach, I have been guiding ambitious athletes to reach their full potential. If you're looking for an authentic coach who challenges you without overwhelming you, motivates you, and gives you honest, uncompromising feedback, then you've come to the right place.

My specialty is effective and, above all, time-efficient training for working professionals. I have written several books on this topic and published more than 100 articles for professional journals and online portals.

My training isn't a walk in the park. We'll get the most out of the time you actually have available. You won't just train more, but more purposefully, in a more structured way, and more consistently.

If you are ambitious and at the same time remain fun and motivated, we should be a good match.

Interested? Then just write me a message. NEWS. If I currently have capacity, we can have a no-obligation phone call to discuss whether and how I can support you.
