About me & why I

Hello, I'm Alex Eigner,

As your personal coach, I will accompany you on your journey to improved performance, endurance, and enjoyment of sport. Whether you are an ambitious trail runner, a passionate road cyclist, a versatile triathlete, or a duathlete – together we will find the optimal path to achieve your goals.

What makes my coaching special?

  • Experience in competitive sports: As a former competitive cyclist in road cycling and long-distance running (3k to ultra-trail), I have firsthand knowledge of the challenges and needs of athletes. Naturally, I also have training as a coach (Austrian Federal Sports Academy) and psychological coach (solution-focused approach and hypnosystemic concept).

  • Measurement of biological markers: In addition to your subjective perception, I rely on objective measurements such as heart rate variability, resting heart rate, and skin conductance to precisely analyze your performance and optimally adjust your training. This expertise stems from my professional experience at Polar Heart Rate Monitors and my role as a lecturer and researcher in this field at the University of Applied Sciences Wiener Neustadt.

  • Individual training plans: Every athlete is unique. That's why I create customized training plans for you that take your personal goals and current fitness level into account. I use the TrainingPeaks software (Level 2 accredited coach) or intervals.icu as a platform.

  • Holistic coaching: In addition to the athletic aspect, I also support you with topics such as nutrition, recovery, and mental strength. I am very committed to considering the balance between sport, work, family/friends, and the corresponding time management in training.

Why a personal coach?

  • Greater efficiency: Targeted training helps you avoid over- and under-exertion and achieve faster, visible progress. Especially if you want to successfully participate in competitions in both cycling and running, for example, I'm the right partner.

  • Motivation: As your coach, I am your constant companion and motivate you to stay on track even in difficult phases, but sometimes I also have to slow you down a bit in your motivation ;-).

  • Individual support: You will receive individual answers to your questions at any time and can rely on my full support.

Let's bring out the best in you together!

  • I am convinced that every athlete has the potential to surpass their personal bests. With my support, you too can achieve your goals.

  • Feel free to contact me for a free initial consultation!

  • I look forward to getting to know you and accompanying you on your sporting journey.
