His Results Speak for Themselves – Meet Rockstar Triathlete: Luis Carranza

Rockstar: Luis Caranza

Coaches Notes:

Since we started at the beginning of the year, Luis has improved 100% in all three sports.

As a busy husband, father, and businessman who travels a lot with a goal of a 5:30 70.3, my Triathlon Transformation Program was ideal. 

We started with all five of the evaluations:

Swim Video analysis and testing
Run video analysis and testing
Bike fit and pedaling mechanics and testing
Strength and mobility assessments, and, of course,
Nutrition Essentials program.

From all of these assessments, I then put together a custom training program for his progressive improvement across the all three sports. 

The training program, along with 24-hour access to the Full Circle Coaching Community and coaches to ask about anything and everything, reassessments every 6-8 weeks, and specific race day logistics about nutrition and pacing…

The results speak for themselves: 

SWIM- started averaging 2:09/ 100 yards- to 1:36/ 100!

BIKE 202 watts FTP to 239 watts FTP

RUN- 7:01, 1-mile run test to a 6:27, 1-mile run test after switching from super cushion shoes to Altra zero drop shoes and improving run strength and stamina.

3 Podiums so far at both Sprint and Olympic distances.

Although we cannot continue training for the goal race in December, I am confident Luis can continue his journey to reach his goal with all the tools we have provided him over the last six months. 

Congratulations Luis! You are a True Rockstar Triathlete!

Age: 40

Profession: Executive

Why did you choose FCC to help you on your triathlon/health and wellness journey? I was recommended to work with Coach Erinne after I asked other triathletes about a great coach who could prepare me for a half-ironman. She was highly recommended by many, so it was a no-brainer.


What is your “A” race for this season?
Cartagena 70.3 Ironman, 2024


What are your BIG goals?
I aim to obtain a sub 5:30 result at my first half ironman in Cartagena. I aim to drastically improve my swimming technique and get smarter with my nutrition.


What were some of your most significant improvements in performance for each of the following? Swim, Bike, Run, and Nutrition/Health. Please include any Personal Records and Goals achieved.

I literally learned how to swim! I had to restart from scratch and learn proper form and technique with Coach Erinne. This was huge, and I have seen vast speed improvement every month. I also learned and understood how to train with training zones, with purpose, and with proper technique for all disciplines, specifically cycling and running.

I have reached the podium three times now and achieved two PRs for my sprint and Olympic distance triathlons.

Name 2 or 3 things that have made the most significant difference in your journey.
I am learning to swim correctly and use nutrition to fuel my entire race! Improving my running form and technique has made me faster and my legs much stronger.

What excites you the most about being involved in triathlon?
It creates mental fortitude and discipline. I spend countless hours building businesses; this is a healthy way to channel all that energy so it isn’t only going into work.
I love being able to grow and challenge myself and to do it with others who are supportive and also on their own journey! And why not? Athletic improvement is also welcomed!

What would you say to another person who was on the fence about joining our training program?
Do it. Coach Erinne won’t let you slide. She will truly focus on you and help you improve.

The same goes for the other coaches on the team! If you are serious about taking it to the next level, join Full Circle Coaching!
