Your training will be dissected by me, Thomas Solomon, using state-of-the-art scientific evidence combined with my years of empirical observation. I take pride in knowing that you are the only you and that your response to training is unique to you. I will, therefore, suggest tweaks as your fitness evolves. My expertise has been honed following more than 10 years of advising and coaching, over 15 years of academic research at world-class institutions, and 20+ years of racing at a high level. I have a PhD in Exercise Science and have published more than 80 peer-reviewed publications in medical journals. I am also an ACSM-certified Exercise Physiologist (ACSM-EP), an ACSM-certified Personal Trainer (ACSM-CPT), a VDOT-certified Distance Running Coach, and a Registered Nutritionist. I have the experience, expertise, and proven track-record to fine-tune your engine and take you up a notch. And, because I have in-depth racing experience with middle-distance track racing (800m to 10,000m), road racing (5 km to Marathon), trail running, mountain running, and obstacle course racing (OCR), I truly understand what it is like to train and compete in these disciplines—I have literally “been there, done it, and gotten sweat, mud, and tears on my t-shirt”.

"I have helped hundreds of people achieve their fitness goals. ​Use my approaches and training philosophies to help achieve yours."


Integrity is at the core of my values.
I have pledged to the Clean Sport Collective to create positive change in supporting athletes who are committed to clean sport.
I am not affiliated with / sponsored by / an ambassador for / receiving advertisement royalties from any brands.
My advice concerning branded nutrition, hydration, supplements, and equipment is objective, based on personal preferences, and never influenced by affiliations, sponsorships, advertisement royalties, etc.
Any recommendations I make are, and always will be, based on my own views and opinions shaped by the evidence available. My recommendations have never and will never be influenced by affiliations, sponsorships, advertisement royalties, etc.
I have conducted biomedical research for which I have received research money from publicly-funded national research councils and medical charities, and also from private companies, including Novo Nordisk Foundation, AstraZeneca, Amylin, the A.P. Møller Foundation, and the Augustinus Foundation. I’ve also consulted for Boost Treadmills and Gu Energy on their R&D grant applications and I've provided research and science writing services for Driftline and Examine. Some of my articles contain links to information provided by Examine but I do not receive any royalties or bonuses from those links. Importantly, none of these companies had any control over the research design, data analysis, or publication outcomes of my work.
To inform the Veohtu Train Smart Framework, I do my utmost to use state-of-the-art, consensus, peer reviewed, and published scientific evidence combined with my empirical evidence observed in practice and feedback from athletes.
The information I provide is not medical advice. Before making any changes to your habits of daily living based on any information I provide, always ensure it is safe for you to do so and always consult your doctor if you are unsure.
