About Me:
 
Coach Al Lyman, CSCS, is the owner and founder of Pursuit Fitness LLC, a nationally recognized coaching company for endurance athletes. An author, columnist, and motivational speaker, he has been coaching athletes of all ability levels from novice to elite, since 1999. Coach Al is certified by USA Triathlon, USA Cycling, and the National Strength and Conditioning Association, and is a member of the American Swim Coaches Association.

Coach Al's theories and beliefs about the best ways to train for endurance sports, developed through practical experience over 25 years as an athlete and researcher, have always been cutting-edge and often considered out of the box thinking. His approach to coaching revolves around a more holistic, balanced approach that includes Yoga, flexibility and mobility training, and smart functional strength training.

Most importantly, he advocates a balanced approach that blends training and racing goals within the context of the triangle of life, which is family, work, and sport.

This approach also led him to develop his now widely acclaimed running-specific functional and core training program, Runner-CORE, which is now being used by hundreds of runners and triathletes world wide with great success!

I was on Team Itto at Badwater with Coach Al. Without Coach Al's advice, experience and cool, our runner, Roberto, would have had a much worse time finishing the race. Coach Al brought a ton of wisdom, not just running or endurance smarts, but life lessons that helped Roberto through the toughest of ultra running challenges. It would be hard to find a better person to be on your side. -- Jason

Al is just getting started and I can't wait to see all the videos that are coming down the pike! He's got some great stuff on gait analysis, swimming stroke analysis, training, fueling, stability and so much more! I've been telling him for a long time to get this stuff up here!
