Coach Chaz Turmon
As a semi-professional road cyclist, I bring many years of experience from the sport to the table when it comes to cycling coaching. After training with some of the top-level athletes in california, I began to fall more and more in love with the sport. I have personally had a cycling coach for years and see the value in it. Through the guidance of my coach, trial and error, and my own personal research, I have come to learn and understand what it takes to be an elite level athlete. This knowledge has motivated me to help others reach their full potential. I focus on getting your body and mind centered on the task at hand when preparing you to compete against the best. Currently, data is king, and that is why I use WKO5 power analysis software to help personalize each individuals training program.
Coaching Options Available
Junior Premium Coaching (18 & Under)
Juniors have so much potential and having a cycling coach not only helps them reach their goals but also sets a solid foundation for years to come in the sport. That is why Elevate Coaching wants to work with you!
Chaz is one of the most approachable and knowledge mentors, both on and off the bike, with whom I have ever worked. I am a challenging athlete to coach, with a perpetual tendency to overtrain, an inquisitive mind that questions everything, and frequent last minute schedule changes given my career in medicine. Chaz has gone above and beyond in every regard: rein me in so I recovery properly, answered every question quickly and completely, and always helps keep my schedule flexible so I don’t have to feel guilty shortening or missing a workout because I am stuck at the hospital. In a year of coaching, Chaz has helped me to increase my FTP by nearly 20% to a solid 4.8 w/kg and worked with me on my racing tactics, helping me make the jump in road racing from cat 4 to cat 2 in less than a season.
Most importantly, I consider him a friend; you don’t want to disappoint your friends, so this is just one more motivator! I can not recommend him enough!!!

Chaz has been my coach for the past 2 months and I couldn’t be happier about how my performance has been improving.
He has been diligent with advancing my fitness towards my particular goals, which hasn’t always been my experience with other coaches. Chaz is very open to discussing numerous aspects of the training (I’m the type that has to know and understand the reason behind every little thing I’m doing), and provides quick and beneficial feedback to keep progress on track. With him being a competitive cyclist, with years of experience both training and racing at a high caliber level, he is a very effective “been there done that” coach, rather than “textbook only” with little real world cycling experience to back it up. I would highly recommend Chaz to anyone who is serious about training hard and seeing results.
Never let your fears hold you back. Life is too short. Am I addicted to cycling? You bet I am and I wouldn't have it any other way!

As a masters aged cyclist, I started to believe that the days of making fitness improvements were behind me and that I should accept getting slower. After only 6 months working with Chaz, I’ve realized that that couldn’t be further from the truth. He identified my strengths and weaknesses and developed a program that has me making consistent and noticeable gains, while working around the rest of my busy lifestyle.
The most powerful part of having Chaz as a coach (for me) has been the accountability. I’ve been able to train more consistently than ever before without burning out or losing motivation.
It’s clear that Chaz can help any cyclist reach their goals, no matter how big or small.
