As coaches, our role is to keep your motivation strong, and hold you accountable for your training commitments for every season.
Coaches Mike Wolfe, Emily Kipp and Colleen Shields will develop a personalized training regime specific to your sport to help you achieve your performance or recreation goals.
At The Mountain Project, we strive to create a community of like-minded driven athletes that support and challenge one another to achieve more. We are open and inclusive to all athletes, whether novice or elite. Whoever you are, our mission is to help you do that which might seem unattainable. Our athletes train with purpose: work hard in the gym and outside to be strong, durable, and fit to enjoy your chosen mountain sport.
"As a mountain athlete, I am always striving for speed and durability in the mountains. Mike's winter ski-mo training plan helped me build solid, sport specific fitness, and his personal advice has sharpened my understanding of how to train for mountains. Good race results and several big ski traverses later, I am healthy and hungry for the next big mountain adventure."
- Brian Story, Ski Mountaineer
“After a year of dealing with nagging injuries from muscle imbalances, Mike’s strength and mobility workouts were just what I needed to start healing and hit the trail. Runners, even those of us who know better, have the tendency to focus on problem areas, instead of enacting full body healthy solutions. Being given the tools and accountability to strengthen arms, back, core and legs, has been what I needed to lace up again. Plus, it pretty much stops all workout whining when you realize the person advising you has made it his job to kick ass at ultras, first ascents and epic mountain adventures."
