Working with Coach Mohamad Alsabbagh has been a life changing experience.
All training plans have been customized not only to my level but to promote constant progression. It is evident that the experience Coach Mo brings to the table is cemented by all the years he has endured training (and competing) himself. As a Coach though, he has the knowledge and vision to push strategically where it must in order to evolve, always redefining limits and never risking an injury.
I came to Mohamad looking for a plan to complete my first ironman distance with a year to go. It has now been little over two years of working together since that day and I cannot think of any other way of training. He has re-shaped my mindset and the overall approach to triathlon training which is one of the most impressive teaching he has shared. His communication skills, the charisma, the analytical perspective along with the wise advise.
I am privileged of working with Mo, he is the mastermind behind my triathlon life and has become a personal mentor as his life experiences through triathlon have filled him with wisdom. Shared with humility in each message or conversation.
I am forty three years old, I have trained and participated in triathlons for ten years already (different clubs and coaches) yet since working under Coach Mo’s advise I have found the best shape of my life. Physically and mentally. I am fit as never before.
It is an honour to take part on this comment board. Mo is a positive part of my everyday life. To know he is there, to read his feedback, to look after each session as a daily goal, to watch him compete when he brings into action every word he praises. Fortune.
⁃ Mo has an innate ability to empower you forward.

Mo is the best coach I have ever had! Where do I start, he helped me from the very beginning of my triathlon journey he was beyond patient with all my questions, and lack of knowledge of the sport. He would take time out of his day to help me with mechanical errors over the phone. He would always send me videos and ideas on new workout routines for me to try. He would explain training peaks to me he showed me my weakness’s and built them up and he will highlight my strengths at the same time. Mo loves details and data and that’s what you want in a coach because those are the things that build your progress. Mo has amazing expertise on nutrition, training volume, world class swimmer you name it he’s most likely able to make you better at it.
Most importantly he keeps you accountable in both good and bad circumstances. With triathlon I learned it’s a mental sport more than anything and Mo does whatever it takes from the start to finish to make sure your not only physically ready but mentally as well when it comes to race day. I’ve had countless numbers of phone calls with Mo and each one I have enjoyed and look forward to his expertise and advice good or bad. The craziest thing of all is I have grown greatly as an athlete and my relationship with Mo and we have never once met in person only virtual. He is without a doubt the best coach and virtual coach out there. I highly recommend and don’t have a single complaint. Thx Mo for helping me on this journey!

My journey with coach Mohamad started back at the end of 2017 and this is where my love and passion for triathlon completely changed.
Through his tailored training program, I was able to reach my goals and exceed my expectations. His plan is always very well done and takes into consideration each athlete's lifestyle, level of fitness and personal circumstances.
He is very professional in terms of communication with us as athletes. He always provides me with a very clear explanation about the process that I should be following which suits my lifestyle, reflecting him being a professional athlete too.
Mohamad is a great motivator and supporter, he always pushes me beyond my limits in a very smart way and he works as per the rule of Quality over Quantity.

Coach Mohamad is one of the best coaches I’ve worked with for many reasons, first thing is his passion. This drives him to care about every single detail not only in training but what comes with it.
He will share all his knowledge of the years of experience in a very smooth manner. And the interesting thing is that he never stops learning, so because every one of us is different and can go through different scenarios whether in training, recovery or nutrition. Mohamad will do his best to advise, guide and be present in each situation that requires professional intervention.
I really enjoy the tailored training he sets for me based on my goals, and most importantly my time availability. He will just make it work.

Mohammed Alsabbagh has been my coach/friend since 2018, I met him during my first ever training camp and he was there preparing for the Asian games. In that time my journey had just begun and I went from being a relative triathlon beginner to qualifying for the ironman 70.3 world championship and completing a sub-11 ironman distance.
Mohammed uses a holistic approach to individually train each and every one of his athletes. He considers all aspects of sports performances to formulate and create a plan including: psychology, personal interests, physiological response, training background, and more. Mo, trained me to progress not just for the next season, but to keep progressing and enjoy the sport of triathlon further into the future.
His knowledge, experience, and passion for the sport of triathlon left a great impact on me as an athlete!
in addition to being an amazing coach and athlete, he is an even better person. He is constantly keeping up and checking in with his athletes, and genuinely cares about their success. I never doubted him and have no doubt he can help you achieve your best and reach your potential!

Mohamad has been invaluable in preparing me for 11 triathlons and coaching me to my 5k and 10k PRs in running. He's attentive, patient and encouraging. He's also adept at getting athletes to get that little bit more out of themselves in the water, on the bike and in running with his intelligent and progressive workouts. I'm a Mo fan all the way!

Coach Mohamad made me much better than I was because of his great knowledge in the science of sports training, his style, his interest, and his good communication. This makes the athlete always have the will to impress the coach with his performance during training, and this is what I found during my training period with Coach Muhammad.. This is a small amount of talk about him.

It is much more than just having a coach upload a training schedule and structured workouts. To me, the ability to communicate with my coach and always giving and receiving feedbacks is crucial to account for all the different elements that goes into one's training-health, injuries, mental-state, emotions, work, life, etc. With Mo, it was even better. Science was always the foundation of everything that was done. I have learned so much more from his abundant knowledge and years of experience that are under his belt as a professional athlete and coach. And frankly, I even learned from him more subtle things about character, mindset, and commitment that had the greatest impact on my development as a triathlete pursuing an elite-level performance. Great things are ahead for us.

Khalid 🇰🇼
It was one of the best and strongest sporting periods I have ever experienced. I started with Coach Mohamed and Coach Ahmed from scratch. I have no sports background at all, so it was a journey for me into the unknown, but they gave me confidence and determination to reach the goal I had in mind and more, and to be honest. We are shocked and thank God for the level and development that I could achieve under their plan and an excellent training team. Praise be to God, may God grant me success in choosing the right coaches, and God willing, the coming will be better and stronger, God willing.
