some words about me

I am a full-time professional coach dedicated to improving the performances of my athletes, employing a style that adapts to athletes needs while creating an environment that empowers them to learn.

Over 20 years of my coaching experience combined with 25 years of my competitive athletic career has given me unique insight into the world of endurance sports.
I am proud of personal investment made in each one of the athletes I have worked with. I see potential in athletes and I also see the path. Then I guide - in whatever way speaks best to the athlete, helping them not just to realize their athletic potential, but to live a better life.

I genuinely care about my athletes' health and their well-being but make no mistake, I do hold them to a higher standard, push their athletic boundaries, and test their performance limits.
I share great enthusiasm and energy with athletes and I am extremely proud that in my small way I could help make some of their athletic dreams become reality.

process

questionnaire

available for training, health status, life priorities, etc.

trainingpeaks

Best online coaching platform is our tool to make your athletic dreams come true. You will receive your training plans and upload/write...

your workout diary there. Your Garmin, Polar, Suunto... device is compatible with TP which has an excellent app for Android and iPhone. TrainingPeaks is the ultimate online tool for coach-athlete communication.

tests/zones

COACHSAVIC employs a six training zones system. Training zones refer to the intensity at which you are training at....

The idea behind having specific training zones is you can control and measure how hard you are training, thus giving you the ability to target specific improvements in your form.
-
After you perform the tests, your zones will be set according to your fitness level. These tests will be periodically repeated so that we can monitor the progress and keep the zones up to date.
-
Your training program will not only include all six intensities but will balance them optimally.

plan

Building your personalized custom training plan according to your current fitness level and tailored to meet your goals and lifestyle....

Made once we agree on the schedule that fits you the best, but flexible and can be adjusted along the way if needed.
-
Individual workouts are organized so that they support Your goal in the best possible way, respecting the principles of individuality, specificity and progression.
-
The plan is made with the intention to balance training with the other important segments of Your life. Race preparation process should contribute to the overall quality of Your life.

feedback

The best feedback is the combination of objective parameters from uploaded workout files (speed, time, watts, cadence,...

heart rate, etc...) and subjective comments, that is how you felt before, during and after the workout. Once all this is in TP it allows me to create the most appropriate training plan for you.

communication

Verba volant scripta manent.
Effective communication is vital for our successful cooperation. There are many...

advantages of written communication but voice call has it's good sides as well. Apart from TP comments and uploaded workout files, email is a preferred way of communicating. You can expect positive reinforcement, genuine interest, and availability.

Nutritional Training

No matter how powerful your engine is, it will not run without fuel! Simple as that :) If your race lasts more than 2 hours, the full tank at the start is not enough to use all your potential.

Pre-Race Nutrition

It is of great importance to try out and get familiar with your pre-race nutrition and hydration strategy within your long training sessions. You should avoid trying out new stuff on a race day!

Everesting, Kopaonik - Rudnica

“Fiendishly simple, yet brutally hard. Everesting is the most difficult climbing challenge in the world". Climb the height of Everest. One hill. One activity. No time limit. No sleep.

With Vladimir as my coach I have learned that ANYTHING is possible if you train, race smart and more importantly finish strong! His coaching is unique and continues to develop and challenge me as an athlete. In short: Dreams do come true with Coach Savic!

Working with Coach Savic has been the key to me achieving my Triathlon dreams. Having a coach who you can have an honest and friendly relationship with is what makes it work. I am driven on achieving my best for my coach and myself as we are a team, with us both celebrating and reaping the rewards of all that I achieve in Triathlon. Vladimir has been my coach of 4 years and he has taken me from a finisher to a competitor, I am so grateful for all his support and guidance.

Vladimir takes the time to get to know you as an athlete and as a human and based on that he builds a personalized training program that balances with your daily life. At the same time, he succeeds to motivate and take you to the next level. I went from doing no sport to become an age group medal winner under Vladimir's guidance and support.

Vlada is so much more than a great coach, he is a real magician. When I started training with him I „only wanted to run one marathon“, well here I am today getting ready for my first Ironman triathlon. Vlada recognized my potential and directed it in the right way, changing my lifestyle for the better.

I’m not easy, not at all, and need to have trust and be convinced that what we are doing makes sense in relation to my goals and time spend. Coach Vladimir had me right from the first conversation and through several of our goals that we made together. When I need a coach again, it will be Vladimir, if he is available.
