Much more goes into a successful strength training program than reps and load. How one thinks, breathes, eats, drinks, and sleeps has just as much impact on a person's vitality as how one moves. Indeed, failing to get the biochemistry right dooms even the best exercise prescription to failure. While most others treat the athlete as though the musculoskeletal system functions as an island. Andrew's approach is Holistic-inclusive of all key systems of the body & mind. Holistic Strength Training for Triathlon will teach the reader what is often neglected in both their pursuit of wellness and their pursuit of a place on the podium.

A native of Atlanta, Andrew Johnston has been involved in personal training for over fifteen years. He originally got into the business for self-improvement, arming himself with knowledge to combat the performance-enhancing drugs that inundate the sport of professional cycling. The strategy worked, and in 1992 he was invited to be a resident athlete at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs. Upon graduation from Eckerd College in 1994, he turned pro and took his ambitions to Europe to race for the Belgian Haverbeke GB team. After the 1996 Olympic Trials, he moved to Spain to race for the Palafrugell and Homs squads until 1998. Andrew devoted his full attention to personal training in 1999, after a crash ended his cycling career just as he was entering his prime. But his competitive juices were quenched for only a year before he discovered an interest in triathlon. In his first full season of triathlon competition, he was the 2001 Olympic Distance Champion of Georgia and fifth overall at the National Long Course Triathlon Championships, earning All- American status as well as a slot on the US World Triathlon team. Andrew founded Triumph Training in 2000, turning his athletic experience and insatiable appetite for knowledge into a successful athletic and rehabilitation training business. Not content with having obtained his Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist degree, arguably the most respected credential in the fitness industry, Andrew became the first Corrective Holistic Exercise Kinesiologist in the state of Georgia in 2001. His passion for the body and its limitless potential has since grown only stronger, with Men's Journal naming him one of the ''Top 100 Trainers in the US'' two years in a row. By practicing what he preaches to his clientele as well as various audiences throughout the Southeast, in 2006 Andrew became the first Leukemia Survivor to qualify for and finish the Hawaii Ironman World Championships. The award-winning documentary Living is Winning captures the events leading up to that race and takes the audience deep into the life of an aspiring triathlete. Now Andrew uses his knowledge as a Holistic Lifestyle Coach and CHEK practitioner to guide people in their pursuit of wellness, ultimately helping them to realize that the only limitations they truly have are the ones they impose on themselves.
