Meet the Coaches
Coach MATT
Since becoming a full-time endurance coach over a decade ago, I’ve worked with hundreds of athletes of all ages, training for a variety of different endurance events, helping them achieve their personal fitness and performance goals.
Participating in endurance sports throughout high school led me to Baylor University where I co-founded the Baylor University Triathlon Team before getting my start in coaching with USA Swimming. From there, I worked as a Triathlon Coach for Carmichael Training Systems working with clients on every continent, while simultaneously being the head coach of the Triathlon Team at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) leading two athletes to individual Collegiate National Championships from 2016 to 2020. In addition to working with hundreds of clients over the last ten years, I’ve been fortunate to race and compete as both a professional and amateur triathlete in races ranging from sprints to the Ironman World Championship in Kona, Hawaii.
In 2021 I started my own coaching business, Coach Matt Powered, and now help the UCSB Triathlon Team part time while working with athletes from all over the world do everything from finish their first sprint race to winning Ironmans and Ultra-Marathons.
