50. Mike Estevez: Understanding The Essence of Training an Athlete

Mike Estevez: Event Announcer, 12 Time Ironman Finisher, USA Triathlon Level1 Coach, IronmanU Triathlon Coach, US Masters Level 2 Swim Coach, USA Cycling Level 3 Coach, ACSM Personal Trainer, Father and devoted Husband.   Today’s episode starts with a little back story of how Why We Tri Podcast came into existence. In life we meet people who help us get back up and keep moving. For me that was teammate and good friend Gabriel Yanni. After the loss of my mom back in 2018 Gabe would encourage me to go on simple rides daily to just keep moving. Before I knew it we started: Coffee Rides with Gabe and Carrie on The Miami Tri Club FaceBook Page. We realized that it was the Underdogs of our team who inspired us to get up and keep moving the most. Soon after our rides Gabe decided to volunteer more with The Miami Tri Club and during quarantine he became a USAT Level II Triathlon Coach. Gabriel Yanni introduced me to many people who have become guests on this show. Including this next guest: Mike Estevez.   Mike opens up and shares how the loss of his brother due to cancer gave way to him making a life pivot in his career and health. Grab your favorite beverage and hear how this energized individual helps his clients to tune into what is going on in their lives and how that shapes their work out and training. As well as, gain some great advice on which gear is a must for a newbie in the world of Triathlon.    Connect with Mike Estevez: IG :@ mikeestevez FB: Mike Estevez Twitter: Mikeyestevez Website: www.
