Tom Evrard
Certified Coach specializing in Endurance, Health, and Nutrition
Let me share a bit of my story so you can understand how I came to coach dozens of endurance athletes.
⸻
I haven’t always been the “endurance athlete” type. For a long time, I actually hated running — or even cycling.
When I was 20, my father — who’s exactly 40 years older than me — invited me for a simple bike ride. At 60, he effortlessly dropped me on the very first climb...
That was a real wake-up call.
Convinced that training harder was the key to improving my fitness, I pushed myself relentlessly. The result? Injuries, stagnation, and frustration… until I started believing I simply wasn’t made for endurance sports.
Instead of giving up, I decided to understand why.
I dove deep into studying physiology, training science, and nutrition. That’s when everything changed — my performance skyrocketed, my injuries disappeared, and I discovered a genuine passion for endurance sports — and later for coaching.
This approach helped me break the 3-hour mark in the marathon, complete my first Ironman 70.3 in under 5 hours, finish the Mont-Blanc ultra-trail (92 km, 6,300 m elevation gain), and increase my cycling threshold power by more than 110 watts.
Today, those years of learning, experimenting, and training allow me to help other athletes progress sustainably and reach their goals.
My coaching approach is grounded in science and experience, and above all, built around a deep, personalized understanding of each athlete — their physiology, goals, and unique journey.

Progressing ≠ Train more
Time is a precious resource. In our busy lives, every hour matters — and unoptimized training can not only waste hours each week, but also hold back your progress for years… keeping you from reaching your true potential.
Without a training plan and nutrition strategy tailored to your unique profile and goals, you’ll never get the most out of your sessions. Your training time won’t deliver its full return, and stagnation will inevitably set in.
I know what that feels like. Before I seriously studied endurance training and nutrition, I too went through that same cycle of frustration — getting injured, stuck, and unable to progress.
The risks of training without coaching
Stagnation
Without a properly tailored plan, effort accumulates with little progress, and motivation slowly wears away.
Injuries
8 out of 10 injuries result from improper training load management.*
*la clinique du coureur
Unknowns
Without clear reference points, you’re navigating blindly, unable to optimize or progress effectively.
False Solutions
❌ Training by feel
Without a clear structure, progress becomes unpredictable — increasing the risk of stagnation, injury, or loss of motivation.
Forget “no pain, no gain” — embrace “no brain, no gain.” Progress isn’t about training harder, it’s about training smarter.
❌ Following Generic Plans
A standard plan can’t be effective because it wasn’t designed for you — your profile, history, strengths, weaknesses, and goals.
Moreover, a plan alone has limited value. The key is knowing how to evolve it, adjust at the right time, and find the proper balance between load and recovery.
❌ Relying on Coaching Apps or AI.
They promise personalization, but rely on too little data and overlook what really matters: the human element. Without listening, feedback, and real guidance, sustainable and consistent progress is impossible.
❌ Creating Your Own Plan
Even with solid knowledge, it’s hard to maintain the necessary perspective on your own training.
Without an outside view, training load is often poorly balanced, progress can be misdirected, and the risk of stagnation or injury increases.
The Level-Up Approach
The truth is, every athlete is unique.
There’s no hidden secret, no miracle method, and no one-size-fits-all plan to copy and paste.
The key to lasting progress — and true athletic fulfillment — is a system that adapts to you: your reality, your body, your schedule, and your fitness level.
A program that takes into account :
✅ Your goals (performance, health, and physical development)
✅ Your physiology and athletic profile (muscular & metabolic profile)
✅ Your lifestyle
✅ Your professional and personal constraints
✅ Your experience and injury history
✅ And many other factors that make you a unique athlete
That’s exactly what Level-Up offers:
A comprehensive, human-centered, and fully personalized coaching program designed to help you achieve your endurance goals, optimize your health, and unlock your full potential.

How does it work?
Here are the 5 key steps of the coaching program, designed to guide you in a structured and personalized way toward your goals:
📋 Information Gathering
You start by completing a comprehensive form so I can get to know you: your athletic background, current situation, lifestyle, and goals for the coming months.
This forms the foundation for a 100% tailored coaching plan.
🚀 Kickoff remote one-on-one session
From the very start, we take the time to dive deep into what truly matters to you — your project, your goals, and your constraints. Together, we identify the key levers to boost your progress.
To take personalization even further, you can complete a remote physiological test to determine your full metabolic and muscular profile — an innovative tool used by top sports federations to precisely tailor training programs that unlock each athlete's full potential.

🏁 Race Strategy Preparation
As the event approaches, we prepare your race strategy together: pace, nutrition, and mental approach. The goal? To ensure you’re ready to perform at your best on race day — with clarity and confidence.
BECAUCE YOUR PHYSIOLOGY IS UNIQUE ,YOUR TRAINING SHOULD BE TOO.
Why Individualizing Your Training Is Essential for Progress ?
Your training plan is the roadmap that takes you from your current condition to the level required to reach your athletic goal.
But to be truly effective, it must consider two key elements:
1. Your physiological profile — your muscular and metabolic starting point.
2. Your athletic goal — the direction needed to evolve your profile to meet the specific demands of your event.
Two athletes training for the same goal — like a marathon — may need very different approaches depending on their physiological profile! One might progress best with a polarized approach, focusing on very low and very high intensities, while the other benefits more from a pyramidal approach, emphasizing intermediate intensities close to threshold.
This difference comes from fundamental physiological factors, such as your muscle fiber distribution (slow vs. fast) and the balance between your aerobic system (VO₂max) and glycolytic system (VLamax).
🧬 How to Discover Your Physiological Profile
At Level Up, we use the same cutting-edge tools employed by the world’s top endurance federations.
Through my collaboration with INSCYD since 2022, I conduct remote physiological tests to determine your metabolic and muscular profile and design a training plan perfectly calibrated to produce the adaptations you need to perform at your best.
This test accurately identifies your position on the power ↔ endurance continuum and provides essential data such as VO₂max, VLamax, thresholds, Fatmax, and carbohydrate utilization.
🎯 Connecting Your Current Physiology to Your Goals
With the data collected, we can:
• Build a 100% personalized plan to evolve your current physiology toward what’s required for your goal.
• Calibrate each session — interval intensity, duration, and recovery precisely matched to your profile.
• Define tailored nutrition, aligned with your actual energy expenditure to support progress and performance.
🚀 Results :
Fast, measurable, and sustainable progress, guided by science and fully adapted to your body, your goal, and your pace.
🍎 Nutrition : The Second Pillar of Progression
Over years of training myself and coaching other athletes, I’ve learned an essential truth: progress isn’t made through training alone. Even the most well-designed training plan isn’t enough if recovery isn’t optimal. Nutrition is the key that allows your body to recover, rebuild tissues, and reduce the risk of injury, while supporting your physiological adaptations.
That’s why I completed a certification as a nutrition coach. Today, I can guide my athletes on all the levers of their progress: training and nutrition. My role is to help them optimize performance, preserve health, and achieve lasting results.
In endurance sports, it’s not about restrictive diets — quite the opposite. The most important thing is to ensure adequate energy intake to train effectively, avoid chronic fatigue, minimize injury risk, and prevent serious health issues such as RED‑S.
With a personalized training plan and tailored nutrition, you get the perfect combination to progress quickly, safely, and sustainably.
