No.* The only thing we require to start is that you create an account on the online training platform used by Mode Push - this is the portal through which you see your workouts, as well as where you and your coach can see and analyze all of your data (collected through monitoring equipment if available) to keep you on track to your goals. *However - While we can certainly provide training plans and advice for your goals without the need to invest in extra gear, your full fitness potential can be unlocked with an initial investment in a few pieces of equipment such as a power meter (biking), and a mode of heart rate monitoring (via a watch, ring, or chest strap), which will help your coach track the stress load of a workout on your body, enabling him to create a plan specific and flexible enough to bring out the best in your body and mind at all times. Additional equipment suggestions or requirements will be discussed with you as your coach sees fit.
