Plan Description

Welcome to your 4 Week Triathlete Winter Training Plan

Your kick start in to your race training season!

The hardest thing about winter triathlon training is getting started. It’s not easy when the days are short and the weather’s not so great. The key is to start off gently and then build up gradually. If you start off with a small amount of regular training, it won’t require so much will power to keep it going. After a couple of weeks, you’ll have built some momentum, making it easier to continue. The tricky part is getting through those first few weeks.

This plan can be used to train for any type of triathlon because it’s simply designed to get the ball rolling. It’s a perfect way to ease back into training so that your training becomes a daily habit. After completing it you can then build your training up for your individual goals. suit you.

- Swim, Bike and Run structered sessions with RPE or Heart Rate Targets

- Follow along videos
- Strength and conditioning to help avoid injuries
