I am a physical therapist with 7 years of clinical practice and just as many years of casual/amature mountain, road, tri, and run racing. I am by no means knocking on the door of professional racing but feel I have the medical background as well as the experience to make a good coach. I have a few years of bike shop experience with a particular bike fit system so I feel comfortable doing detailed fit on a road bike as well as having done some research in fit modifications to remedy a number of diagnoses I see on a daily basis.
I am looking for resources or contacts where I could be trained further as a cycling/tri coach as well as expanding my fit knowledge. What is the best coaching resource out there that doesn't require a "residency" experience. In other words is there a coach training program that is taught in stages on weekends somewhere in the country (or world) for that matter?
Is there a particular fit system that is most highly regarded as being scientifically based? Is Serotta's SICI one of the best?
