Would highly recommend Stu to help hit your race goals. Having not even done a single triathlon, Stu provided me with structured training to fit in with my busy work schedule to get me across the Sunny Coast 70. 3 finish line. Having some issues with injury and worried I may not hit my goal, Stu was able to provide guidance and honest opinions on alternative race options to ultimately reach the same goal. The RTT family are extremely welcoming and for first timers like myself give all the necessary tips and advice making the entire journey an easy one. Personally I won’t hesitate to be coached by Stu for any future triathlon/running goals. More...

Stuart is very approachable and encouraging, the training schedule is easy to follow. I would highly recommend him to anyone that is looking to start/continue their triathlon journey. 5 months ago I asked if Stuart could get me to do IRONMAN 70.3 Sunshine Coast - yes, he said. Well, that was Sunday 10/9/2023 and I did it. He was amazing as well as the tri crew behind him🏊‍♀️🚴‍♀️🏃‍♀️ More...

I was looking to train for my first full distance Ironman, and a friend of mine was being coached by Stuart at the time and suggested I reach out to him. I did, and after our initial chat felt very comfortable that he was the coach that I needed to get my over the line in Cairns 2023. As the weeks passed and we got closer to race day more and more scenarios ran through my head. Stuart helped me navigate these and told me that race day was simply a celebration of the training and hard work that I had put in. Pleased to say, that thought stayed with me during the race and got me over the line. If you're looking for a coach who genuinely wants you to cross the line and achieve your objective of completing a specific race...reach out to Stuart. More...

I can highly recommend him to anyone looking for a supportive, knowledgeable, accessible and genuinely caring coach and triathlon mentor. I am relatively new to the triathlon world and had been fumbling my way through unstructured training before Stuart really took time upfront to understand my goals and also my restrictions (work, family life etc) and then put together a plan that made sense for me. No question that I had was too elementary to ask and get his thoughtful and considered input. I was always super impressed by how responsive he is and generous of his time and advice.

To say I highly recommend Stuart Payne as a coach doesn't go far enough. I feel like Stu worked a miracle on me. In just under a year I went from not being able to walk/run 2 mins to completing a full distance Ironmaori triathlon (3. 8km swim, 180km cycle, 42.2km run) in Dec 2022. For an entire year he had to gently steer me away from all my self-doubts, fears and concerns, and he steadfastly maintained his absolute faith that I could do it .....if I CONSISTENTLY stuck to the training plan he had devised. Not only that, but it would reduce my risk of injury and hopefully not put me off by with the increased training loads. Don't get me wrong, it was hard work (and tiring) esp. towards the end with the much longer rides and runs There were little injury niggles along the way, I also got the dreaded Covid, but overall, when I got to race day I was healthy, happy, relaxed and ready to go! As I said, a miracle worker. I even managed to squeeze in a half Ironman (70.3) in September as a bit of a warm-up. There is so much more I could say and this is probably already waaay to long, but mostly I just wanted to say a big thank you Stuart Payne for believing in me, and for picking me up (figuratively) and giving me that little nudge I needed every so often to get me over the finish line, and achieve my dream goal of honouring my darling dad. For anyone considering Readytotri Triathlon Coaching, you will not be disappointed, and I was one of Stu's online clients residing in Sydney while he is based in Queensland. Connecting with a coach really works. I'm solid proof of it! More...

RTT meets you at your skill and fitness level, how busy you are and ensures there is a plan that will help you meet your goals. I have completed 3 x 70.3 with Stuart Payne and have improved each round. What I love is being able to chat to Stu as to where I am. I never feel pressured, but rather motivated. The training camps are great, diverse in activity and definitely not a weekend off. This is an awesome group with different levels of skill and people willing to share experiences. More...

I realised I needed to supplement my Triathlon training with core strength training and Stuart Payne at RTT provides these for me. Stuart has provided excellent PT sessions which are fun, targeted and have certainly made a difference. (Over a year of swimming training saw very little increase in speed, 3-4 months of strength and swim times are down). I would definitely recommend PT either as a standalone or as a supplement to triathlon. More...

"Sometimes it takes a very special coach to realise exactly what a particular athlete needs in order to bring out his/her potential. In this case Coach Stuart started putting into my training plan some reflective questions. This I soon discovered was Mindset training. A few inconspicuous journal questions which without me realising had me turning so much upside down in my head. Perfect timing. As an adult, I had self fulfilled the prophesy that I could not perform at levels I wanted to reach. My goals seemed pretty far fetched. Everytime I was on target to do some good, I would find an excuse, or someone else to blame so I didn't have to try. I was afraid of failure - not only in the eyes of others, but to myself. I've been with Stuart since mid year 2021, I have surpassed any mental blocks I had. In the last several weeks of mindset training I have come to realise that my goals are there for me to take, and I have the tools now to help avoid self sabotaging. I feel sick now if I miss a session, and always try to find a way to get it done. I take no excuse - it's only cheating myself - and at the end of the day if I quit no one else will care; but I will know. I think I have proven in the past I had a stubborn tenacity, now I have some knowledge to go with the training, so being stubborn doesn't factor anymore. I have the positive mindset that I can achieve what I set out to do, along with the realisation that I can do the training that is required to bust those goals. I've never had a coach take the time to make me realise that I can, and I will. It's almost like a polite guidance to realisation that inside all of us is the power. It's just whether we harness it for positive use. I am yet to complete my first Ironman. However, I know it's on the horizon. My mind is ready. The body will follow. Cannot speak highly enough of Coach Stu. I never feel like a number in the squad. My plan is individual and fits my life, even the speed bumps. I don't question his wisdom. " More...

Secondly, he really takes the time to adapt the training to your personal circumstances so you can have time for life and training! And most importantly, he understands when you need a gentle push or a kind word and makes you feel like you don’t just have a coach, but someone proudly in your corner who is cheering for your success always.

May 2020 - how best to beat that COVID-19 'iso' year? So 7yrs after my first Sunny Coast 70.3 in 2013, I wasn’t getting any younger and decide now or never, time to challenge myself to another Sunny Coast 70. 3! But this time I was going to do something different, a first for me in fact. I have completed many endurance events but always trained solo and had never used a coach. I did my research and found a local Tri Coach in Stuart Payne and his ‘Tri Tribe’ that was a significant additional benefit to being part of Stuart’s group. Stuart and his club members are a fantastic friendly bunch of people. Stuart’s coaching has been out of the top drawer. The online app, Training Peaks that Stuart uses simplifies the approach an athlete is tasked with, sessions are easy to view for the week ahead, no thinking about or having to plan your own sessions, as the athlete you simply have to execute on the plan Stuart has prepared for you on the app. Besides this, the weekend group runs and rides make the longer sessions easier, sociable and fun, learning new routes and skills along the way. Stuart’s regular participation on our weekend sessions is another added benefit with his hands-on coaching and challenging you to challenge yourself and achieve more as an athlete and person. Stuart’s weekly check in’s and regular access and responsiveness from him throughout the week is excellent. I am not sure if this is normal for a Coach but he seemed always available & reassuring throughout the process. It became very clear early on that he is a very knowledgeable coach and experienced triathlete himself… he knows what we are going through! I must mention that I am not an age group competitive type athlete, just your average Joe. My goals for using a coach were to train smarter, be more efficient with my time, energy and training sessions, manage my aging body while avoiding injury and to better my time from 7 years ago, I shared these goals with Stuart at the start... Best decision I ever made signing up to Readytotri, I met some wonderful people (each on their own journey), learned how to train smarter, was definitely more efficient with my time, energy and training sessions and no injuries.... the results speak for themselves - thanks Stuart and team. 2013 : 6h:19min:08sec 2020: 5h:30min:12sec More...
