Our training approach is built on time and heart-rate effort, which ensures highly effective training on all types of terrain. Accurate heart-rate data is critical for setting your zones, managing training load, and progressing safely and efficiently toward your goals.
Training Methodology
Our coaching system is built on time and heart rate rather than distance. All sessions are prescribed by duration and personalized intensity (HR zones), ensuring highly accurate pacing, controlled training load, and safe progression in all environments.
Key benefits:
• Consistent training stimulus across all terrain
• Precise intensity control using personalized heart-rate zones
• Works seamlessly on trails, mountains, flats, treadmill, or mixed terrain
• Adjusts naturally to fatigue, elevation, heat, and conditions
• Reduces risk of overtraining and supports long-term development
Yearly Plan & Periodization
Your coach designs an individualized yearly training plan built around your race calendar, personal goals, and available training conditions. Each phase is adapted to your fitness level and evolves with your progress throughout the year.
Races A, B & C
Your races are categorized to ensure perfect timing and peak performance:
A Races: Your key events — training is structured to ensure peak condition.
B Races: Events used to test pacing, nutrition, gear, and strategy.
C Races: Integrated without significantly altering the overall plan.
Base Phase
Develop aerobic endurance, mobility, stability, functional strength, and durability of feet/ankles/joints. Ideal for building a strong foundation.
Specific Phase
Improve threshold, VO₂max, climbing efficiency, downhill technique, and trail-specific strength. Training volume and load are adapted to your goals and running history.
Pre-Competition Phase
Ultra-specific training including long runs, back-to-backs, terrain adaptation, fueling practice, pacing strategies, and race simulation work — while maintaining strength and plyometrics.
Taper & Race Phase
Reduce training load to reach the start line fresh and ready.
Includes taper guidelines, race-day pacing strategy, nutrition plans, hydration guidance, and mental preparation.
Transition Phase
Recovery after key races — restoring muscular, joint, cardiovascular, and hormonal balance. Includes structured mobility, light training, and post-race nutrition guidance.
Training Load & Performance Management
We use TrainingPeaks to monitor and control your training load with the metrics:
Fitness (CTL), Fatigue (ATL), and Form (TSB).
This ensures your training stress is optimized throughout the season and that you arrive prepared for your A and B races.

3.3. An external chest-strap heart-rate monitor
(recommended for accurate HR data — essential since our methodology is based on time and heart-rate effort)
Our training approach is built on time and heart-rate effort, which ensures highly effective training on all types of terrain. Accurate heart-rate data is critical for setting your zones, managing training load, and progressing safely and efficiently toward your goals.
Training Methodology
Our coaching system is built on time and heart rate rather than distance. All sessions are prescribed by duration and personalized intensity (HR zones), ensuring highly accurate pacing, controlled training load, and safe progression in all environments.
Key benefits:
• Consistent training stimulus across all terrain
• Precise intensity control using personalized heart-rate zones
• Works seamlessly on trails, mountains, flats, treadmill, or mixed terrain
• Adjusts naturally to fatigue, elevation, heat, and conditions
• Reduces risk of overtraining and supports long-term development
Yearly Plan & Periodization
Your coach designs an individualized yearly training plan built around your race calendar, personal goals, and available training conditions. Each phase is adapted to your fitness level and evolves with your progress throughout the year.
Races A, B & C
Your races are categorized to ensure perfect timing and peak performance:
A Races: Your key events — training is structured to ensure peak condition.
B Races: Events used to test pacing, nutrition, gear, and strategy.
C Races: Integrated without significantly altering the overall plan.
Base Phase
Develop aerobic endurance, mobility, stability, functional strength, and durability of feet/ankles/joints. Ideal for building a strong foundation.
Specific Phase
Improve threshold, VO₂max, climbing efficiency, downhill technique, and trail-specific strength. Training volume and load are adapted to your goals and running history.
Pre-Competition Phase
Ultra-specific training including long runs, back-to-backs, terrain adaptation, fueling practice, pacing strategies, and race simulation work — while maintaining strength and plyometrics.
Taper & Race Phase
Reduce training load to reach the start line fresh and ready.
Includes taper guidelines, race-day pacing strategy, nutrition plans, hydration guidance, and mental preparation.
Transition Phase
Recovery after key races — restoring muscular, joint, cardiovascular, and hormonal balance. Includes structured mobility, light training, and post-race nutrition guidance.
Training Load & Performance Management
We use TrainingPeaks to monitor and control your training load with the metrics:
Fitness (CTL), Fatigue (ATL), and Form (TSB).
This ensures your training stress is optimized throughout the season and that you arrive prepared for your A and B races.

Build Your Plan — Your Personalized Starting Point Build Your Plan is the first step in every Arduua Coaching Package. Its purpose is to create a training plan that is fully individualized to your goals, your current physical status, and your real-life training conditions.
The process begins with your Health & Training Questionnaire, followed by targeted assessments — running tests, strength and mobility checks, running-form analysis, and a video meeting with your coach. Together, these provide a complete understanding of who you are as an athlete. With this foundation, your coach designs an effective and highly personalized yearly plan that aligns with your goals and supports sustainable, long-term progress.
Tailored Training from the Ground Up
Build Your Plan is the foundation of every Arduua coaching package. Its purpose is simple: to create a training plan that is 100% personalized to you — your goals, your current fitness, and your available training days.
Every Arduua Coaching Plan begins with Build Your Plan, followed by an initial video meeting with your dedicated coach. This first phase ensures we design the most effective and individualized training structure for your season.
To do this, we dive deep into your running background, physical condition, strengths, and limitations. You’ll complete targeted questionnaires and assessments, including running tests, detailed running-form analysis, and evaluations of mobility, strength, stability, and balance.
This holistic process gives us a complete understanding of who you are as an athlete — allowing us to build a training plan that fits you perfectly and sets the foundation for long-term trail running success.
You will need to fill out a form including your health declaration, training status, goals, ambition and planned races.
We have created specific running test for our runners where you run with a chest strap and a training watch. From this we can establish your pulse zones and level of running. We will do one easy running test to establish your aerobic threshold, and one hard test to establish your anaerobic threshold.
These tests will give us specific information of mobility, balance and strength to be trained during your training programme in order to create the best conditions for an efficient running technique.
We do a running form analysis based on video footage you send us.
Based on your physical condition, goals and test results your coach will build your yearly plan for you in Trainingpeaks. The plan will include all your A, B and C-races including your goals, and your overall phases of trainings.
In your training plan we determine the optimal training load in order to make sure you are in your very best shape on race days.
