What Is Your Coaching Philosophy?
Reactive or Designed Training

Conventional coaching

    3S approach

Analyze past performance Model future performance structure
Adjust workouts Design a training process to support it
Monitor fatigue Execute suggested structured loads
Hope performance improves Select performance progression rate

3S was created to help coaches move from reactive training decisions to a structured training process that produces predictable results.

What the 3S Training System Delivers for Rowing Coaches

Instead of guessing rowing training loads and intensities, 3S helps coaches execute a structured training process designed to produce specific adaptation responses.

Key Capabilities for Rowing Coaches

  •  Calculate seasonal training loads aligned with target performance
  • Distribute weekly Training Loads by Energy Zone
  • Generate structured daily training sessions
  • Adjust training intensities as the season progresses
  • Track athletes’ actual progression toward performance goals

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

The 3S system designed to  calculate all training process elements by default,  using simple initial information.   However, 3S platform tools  helps coaches to adjust suggested design or create one of their own.  In any case scenario, you will receive a structured rowing training process by modeling performance structure and distributing training loads throughout the season.

The platform calculates seasonal loads and distributes weekly training zones based on the athlete’s target performance model, using well researched concepts and proprietary algorithms.  In all cases, 3S suggest the optimum for each instance model of loads distribution in season, week, and every training session (workout).

No. The system provides a structured training architecture, allowing coaches to focus on guiding athletes and managing the adaptation process.

Yes. 3S integrates and carefully coordinates ergometer and on-water training into a unified training structure.  The users may always create their weekly training schedule using both on-water and erg training for each session.

On February 1st (2024), I rowed a 7:27.1 at the US National Championships, and not only won my age and weight class (70-74 Lightweight), I was also the fastest in my age group of all weight classes.   I also participated at World Indoor Championships on February 22nd. My time was 7:24.1 placing me 2nd in the world (second time in a row). I am very pleased with the result, and very much appreciative of your continuous support.
