Davide Barone

My career began with a Bachelor's degree in Sport and Exercise Science, earned in 2013, followed in 2016 by a Master's degree in Sport Science, Technique and Teaching, which led me to become a coach and athletic conditioning specialist with a passion for endurance sports.

Since then, driven by passion and a desire to raise the quality standards of athletic preparation, I have been planning training programmes for beginners, intermediate athletes and professional/elite athletes. I have kept learning and, over time, have completed many Coach/Instructor courses with the leading endurance sports federations: FIDAL, FISKY, FITRI and IRONMAN, to name a few.

As a coach, I believe my greatest strength is a constant commitment to ongoing education and professional development, combined with a strong human and relational approach, which I am convinced is essential to building a relationship of growth and trust with each athlete.

As an athlete, I have raced and finished Sprint, Olympic, IRONMAN 70.3 and Full distance triathlons, and it is the long distances that I have been focusing on in recent years. In running, I have mainly concentrated on medium-to-long trail races and road races.

My professional goal has always been to create "tailor-made" sporting programmes, not just workouts, taking into account your goals, the time you have available, your job and the unexpected events that inevitably arise in an athlete's life.

In 2023/24 I decided to devote a great deal of time to training coaches with degrees in Sport and Exercise Science, because I had a project in mind that I wanted to develop. At the end of 2024 I founded Endurance Coaching Italia, a coaching company that aims to become a point of reference in the world of endurance sports in Italy. Our team of coaches keeps growing and is constantly evolving.
