Hi Andrea! What does triathlon mean for you?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Triathlon, like my family, is my life, job and passion (I started in 1992 in Montecarlo) and for me and my wife Nadia Cortassa (5th place at Olympic Games\u00a0–\u00a0Athens\u00a02004 and 2006 World Champion in team competition) triathlon is a lifestyle in terms of healthy values that we try to teach to our sons and athletes day by day. Triathlon means coordination, optimization, concentration, respect, love for nature, pay attention to itself and other people.<\/em><\/p>\n

Swim, bike, run. Tre disciplines completely different that they become one. What is your approach to training in professional athlete and amateur respectively?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Regarding the professional triathlete I define the limits and contents and built\u00a0tailor-made\u00a0training\u00a0programs for him. On the contrary, amateur has a life completely different as compared to a pro athlete: family, job and friendly relations are his priorities. He talks with me about time, goals and availability, and I must prepare the best possible built training program, in order to obtain the best results.\u00a0Professional triathlete makes itself available wherease I make myself available for amateur. In any case, the goal is the same: optimize work for better performance.<\/em><\/p>\n

Quality is a must for you. Whats is the role of Indoor Training in your planning? And how do you consider MagneticDays in your training plans?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Time optimization is the key for both professional triathlete and amateur. I\u00a0have always considered indoor training as a must in my training plan during whole the year<\/strong>\u00a0(I worked indoor only in the winter until recently).\u00a0Fortunately, since I work with MagneticDays (the first Indoor Training System based on a scientific approach) I was able to convert my ideas into reality<\/strong>,\u00a0offering high quality built training to my athletes during spring and summer also (at\u00a0least\u00a0twice a\u00a0week), because there are specific workouts that are more efficient if done with this training system if compared to others on the road.<\/em><\/p>\n

Bike strong to run strong. In terms of results, how MagneticDays affects the performance of your athletes?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

MagneticDays is “more than a smart trainer” and my athletes have obtained great results<\/strong>. Each workout is planned in 3 phases on the base of specific physiological values of the athletes, so I\u00a0can prepare the best possible training in order to reach our goals. Furthermore, MagneticDays is\u00a0“no shortcuts”<\/strong>,\u00a0because we can work with Newton and RPM that can be controlled from beginning to end<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n

MagneticDays allows me to simulate any bike race course, setting the personal values of Watt for each athlete. So, I can work specifically on all of the race segments (start, jerks, race pace and more),<\/strong>\u00a0obtaining great results<\/strong>. I work currently with international Pro athletes and MagneticDays is one of my personal fundamental points..<\/em><\/p>\n

Here’s the advice by Coach Andrea Gabba<\/strong><\/h2>\n

My personal advice for all triathletes is: “MagneticDays allows you to optimize your time and training in the best way, giving you the chance to improve yourself under each point of view<\/strong>.. if you try it, you love it.”<\/em><\/p>\n
