Professional Coaching and Consulting Services

"I began working with Aaron in the off-season of 2023 and quickly realized I’d never work with anyone else again. His training plans helped me push past long-standing plateaus and reach new levels of performance I hadn’t thought possible. The seasons I trained with him were marked by countless Strava and TrainingPeaks trophies and, more importantly, real success on race day. The most frustrating thing about working with Aaron is that he WILL get you exactly where you need to be, but it’s still up to you to show up and race."

"Aaron brings an incredibly personable and supportive energy to coaching. He truly understands what it means to have a busy life outside of riding, and his flexibility makes training feel achievable rather than overwhelming. I’ve seen real, motivating results from the structure and intention he puts into every workout. His approach isn’t copy-and-paste—he listens, he educates, and he delivers the kind of thoughtful coaching you’ll never get from a generic program or Zwift."

"Aaron Gouw’s expertise in human bioenergetics makes his coaching style very unique, in that his prescriptions are backed by years of human research. He elegantly combines hard facts of biology with a knowledge and breadth of elite endurance training that you are unlikely to find elsewhere. My time with Coach Gouw’s training method not only helped me exceed my personal goals, but changed how I view training entirely. There is no higher recommendation I can make for a coach."

"Aaron has been an incredible help in my fitness and cycling journey! Before moving to Colorado, I did not have a cycling coach and was just learning on my own. Having Aaron as my coach to create cycling and running plans, chat with me about my goals, and answer any questions I had really allowed me to improve. His focus on keeping the sport fun has been a relief for me to find joy in my training with a great supporter alongside me!”

"Dr. Aaron Gouw is a brilliant coach. He is always extremely responsive, can alter training schedules to fit around anyone’s life, and genuinely cares about his athletes. I would recommend Aaron as a coach to any athlete no matter his or her skill level."

"If you want a coach that understands the why behind the workouts he prescribes, hire Aaron. He understands that each individual is unique in needs and physiology and will create a plan tailored to your specific goals. It would be difficult to find a coach that understands more about human physiology and the cycling landscape than Dr. Gouw."

"Working with the Gouw Coaching Collective I have been able to not only level up in the physical aspects but also in the mental as he truly creates a safe environment for me to express my thoughts. This past season I was able to snag 14th in the U23 Lifetime Grand Prix which I accredit to Aaron’s flexibility, knowledge, and patience. Moving into this coming season I am more than excited to continue working with GCC to make my dreams a reality!"

"Aaron is a great coach with lots of experience and a great personality! He not only deeply understands human physiology, but he also communicates very well how the training will help you with your goals. Aaron is very learned about the technical and mental analysis of what it takes to improve."

"Aaron has provided me a world class science based approach to training and racing. This included a 20% increase of my FTP within a year all while avoiding overtraining or burnout. Aaron is readily available to answer my questions and adjust my training schedule if a conflict arises. Any cyclist looking to maximize their training and performance need look no further."

"Aaron has a wealth of knowledge that goes far beyond the training plans he assigns you. He understands so many perspectives and meets you wherever you are at in your growth as an athlete. He has worked with crazy schedules and always keeps your goals in mind by utilizing the best methods that works for each individual athlete. "
