Stop wasting effort. Start going faster.

Efficiency is the shortest path to speed

Yousuli is a Greater Los Angeles endurance performance lab and coaching ecosystem. We use lab testing, on-road aero work, and technique analysis to turn your training into real speed, in the pool, on the bike, and on the run.

How we make athletes faster

Lab-grade testing, real-world aero, technique work, and a community that doesn’t make beginners feel small.

01

Metabolic & VO₂ testing

Real training zones from real gas exchange. RMR for fueling and RED-S screening. Lab-grade accuracy in a portable mobile setup.

02

Aero & equipment optimization

Field-based CdA testing for free speed. Position, helmet, tires, hydration setup, the changes that save 10–50 watts on race day.

03

Technique & movement

Stroke mechanics, gait analysis, biomechanical fixes. Not vague advice, specific cues you can use when the coach isn’t there.

04

Supportive club culture

No “elite-only” barrier. Beginners and Kona-level athletes share the same space, with different plans but the same respect.

Because triathlon is hard enough.

Three disciplines, three different limiters. Yousuli works across all of them, and on the connections between them.

Swim

Move better in the water

Increase propulsive power with prescriptive drills and exercises. Pacing built from real metabolic data. Drills that actually translate to open water.

  • Stroke analysis + correction priorities
  • Open-water sighting, drafting, mass starts
  • On-site coaching (Slipstream-supported sessions)

Free speed without more watts

We test, prescribe training intensity, and minimize aerodynamic drag. The same effort, faster splits.

  • Field-based CdA, position, equipment testing
  • Tire pressure, equipment, fueling dial-in
  • Race-specific pacing models

Tap into your real potential

Running form, power, and physiological analysis. Plans built around your biomechanics, not someone else’s.

  • Form, power, and physiological analysis
  • Integration with previous load & injury history
  • Practical cues, drills, and workouts

The Yousuli Performance System

Because no two athletes are the same.

Athlete VO2max test

We offer a wide range of cutting-edge physiological, metabolic, and efficiency tests, from RMR / RED-S screening to VO₂, lactate, and SmO₂ profiling, plus performance tests for athletes and clubs. The goal is to assess strengths and limiters correctly, then empower athletes with the right tools to drive efficiency forward.

VO₂maxFrom $160
RMRFrom $120
Bike CdAFrom $150
Swim analysisFrom $80
Run / GaitFrom $100
PRP$329
PRO Full-Stack$500

Groups and bespoke coaching

The heart of the community is in greater Los Angeles, but we coach athletes in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Welcome to all.

The Yousuli Social Club

A club for ordinary humans doing unordinary things. Building toward 1,000 strong, committed to doing big things together.

Cyclist group at mountain top

The Yousuli Club is where the numbers meet real people. Group sessions, shared challenges, long-term projects, from first 70.3 to crossing a mountain range. Low-barrier membership, high-quality support, and a real community of athletes pulling in the same direction. Read the 1,000-strong mission →

Local + online

Weekly sessions in Walnut, CA. Online squads for athletes elsewhere.

Shared epic projects

Pick the one that fits your level, from first 70.3 to crossing a mountain range.

Priority access

Early picks on testing days, clinics, and partner discounts (Zoot trisuit, Slipstream, EO SwimBETTER, more).

Why athletes pick Yousuli

Three things athletes mention in the first message they send.

Testing without confusion

We don’t drown you in graphs

You get clear training zones, pacing plans, and one-page summaries you can actually use. Numbers translated to next-step decisions, not data theatre.

Free-speed obsession

We look at what’s leaking energy

Position, equipment, pacing, fueling, movement. The goal is always the same: more speed for the same cost. Add training load after the leaks are fixed.

Community over ego

No “fast or out” culture

Beginners and Kona-level athletes share the same space, with different plans but the same respect. The first 5 km matters as much as the third Kona qualification.

Free tools & education

Frederic Simon

I’ve spent decades in endurance, hundreds of marathons and ultras, 101 self-supported half-Iron distance days in a row, and more time in the pain cave than I care to admit. That experience, plus formal training in coaching, strength & conditioning, and testing, convinced me of one thing: most athletes work way harder than their results suggest. Yousuli exists to fix that gap between effort and outcome.

Certifications: USAT Level II · Ironman certified · TrainingPeaks · Strength & Conditioning · Sport nutrition · Behavior change. Based in Walnut, California, working with athletes worldwide.

Pick your version of epic.

Yousuli is building a community of 1,000 people committed to doing epic things, their version of epic, not ours. The first 5 km, the first 70.3, the Kona qualifier, crossing a mountain range. Whatever it is, we’d love to hear about your goals.
