Triathlon coaching · Dubai
Personalised swim, bike, run and strength coaching for athletes training in Dubai—planned around the heat, your working week and the races you want to do.
Training in Dubai
A generic plan assumes mild weather and a free Saturday. Dubai training means 5 a.m. starts, summer heat, long rides at Al Qudra, swims at the beach when conditions allow and indoor sessions when they don't. Your program is built around those realities from the first week.
Heat and humidity are handled through the TRIFIT Gulf Heat Protocol, and you can check today's conditions and training spots in the Dubai Training Guide.
“The results included consistent podium placements, UAE National Team squad selection for two successive years, and completing my first Ironman and T100 races. Coach Telani didn’t just improve my fitness—she redefined my potential.”
Your race goal
Dubai athletes race across the Gulf and beyond. Your season is planned backwards from your goal race, including travel, acclimatisation and race-day heat strategy.

“She constantly adapts my programme around what is realistically happening in my life, while still keeping me moving forward… in two years I haven’t had a single overtraining injury.”
From a first IRONMAN 70.3 in Bahrain to qualifying to represent her country at the T100 Championship.

Telani coaches athletes in the UAE, including a UAE National Team squad member.
Triathlon coaching is AED 599 per month for Essentials (a personalised program with a check-in and TriLoad report every two weeks) or AED 949 per month for Full coaching (weekly feedback, direct WhatsApp support, the Monday TriLoad report and TrainingPeaks Premium included). Single-sport coaching starts at AED 399 and Multisport at AED 499. Coaching is month to month. If you would rather follow a ready-made plan, see the TRIFIT race plans. See race plans →
Yes, with the right adjustments. Sessions are scheduled for cooler times of day, effort targets are adjusted for heat and humidity, and indoor alternatives are planned in. Your sweat rate is measured so hydration is based on your own numbers.
No. Many athletes start strong in one discipline and new to another. Your starting point in each sport is considered when the program is built.
A TrainingPeaks account (Premium is included with Full coaching; free Basic is enough for Essentials) and a compatible GPS watch or bike computer. Pool or open-water access for swimming.
