Plan Description

Consistent training of 2-3 weekly workouts per sport over the prior 4-6 weeks

You should be able to swim 1,500 meters without stopping

You should be able to bike for at least 60 minutes at a steady pace

You should be able to run for at least 45 minutes at a steady pace

Strength and core workouts are included with video demonstrations

Quality workouts are spaced out by 2-3 days to ensure proper recovery

Your day off is Friday, your long ride is Saturday and your long run is Sunday

After your initial Swim Pace, Heart Rate, and Power evaluations, your zones are automatically adjusted and customized to you for each workout

Busy life? Our programs are designed for the age group triathlete who has a busy life with a full-time job, a family and/or other responsibilities. These plans provide time-efficient workouts - with no junk miles. Get in and get it done!

Time management. In this program, the longer workouts will be on the weekends, and the weekdays will consist of shorter workouts. The objective for this plan is to improve your run through consistency and frequency. There are a lot of short runs that will get you ready for the season.

Test your progress. During the plan, there will be periodic testing to assess your fitness and re-adjust your Heart Rate and Power Zones. If you don’t train with HR or a power meter, that’s fine. The tests are still good training as you can also measure improvement based on time and effort.

EVIDENCE! Our plans are carefully designed with evidence-based training science, technology, and wisdom from one of USAT’s highest professionally certified coaches. You will gain confidence week-by-week that you are ready for race day.
