Triathlon training plans
Training plans for Half-ironman (70.3)
This triathlon consists of a 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, and 13.1 mile run. Even though its "only" a half, it places very high physical and mental demands on athletes. To finish or even win requires systematic training and strategic distances. Our plans deliver this expertise.
The training plans for this distance naturally correspond to the 1.2-56-13.1 distances, but also provide a solid base for those athletes wishing to attempt a full length ironman competition at some point. They also work well for those who are training for shorter races and prefer longer and less speed-based training sessions.
Timeframe
Annual training plan preparation for triathlon season: You will receive a years worth of plans that train you for your next event as well as builds up core strength and performance for next year as well. Our training year starts in November and reaches its peak with the triathlon season in summer, and naturally you can join in at any time of the year. Through our strategy and prioritized workouts, youll be in top-form automatically when the tri-season is in full swing.
12-week prep plan for a single event: This plan is for those who have one event in mind and want to focus solely on that over three months. It differs from the year plan in that there is more devoted to the specifics of the event and doesnt include the build up for future events like the entire years plan. This plan is especially fitting for those whove decided recently to do a race and have 12 weeks to get ready. Naturally we recommend our year-round program for those who have the time for a more comprehensive approach.
For athletes who train rather irregularly or do not want to conclude longer contracts, we have the option "Plan on demand". You register normal with your data and download a 4-week plan if necessary. You pay these before downloading via PayPal. So you stay flexible at all times.
Individually
You have a choice of how many training units you want to accomplish per week. This way your training fits with your schedule and youre more likely to complete each one and be more successful.
The range and intensity of your workouts are determined by the type of base matched with the goals youve set. We measure the intensity of swimming and running with your pulse and the time needed to meet the plan. Biking intensity is solely measured with your pulse. We base times and values based on the best times you provide for a 10k run (or similar) and a 400 m swim (or longer), as well as what your maximum pulse is. The plan we provide for you is always optimal; its what you should be able to do when healthy and able to push the envelope. There may be days/times when you need to dial it back a bit due to illness or injury.
You have the option to set a target date for an event where you wish to perform your years best. Your plan will be adjusted to the specs of the race as well as intensity build-up and tapering so youre at your peak when the day of the event arrives.
In addition to the annual competition highlight, you can specify your competition planning for your other competitions. We will then consider these competitions with the appropriate tapering and subsequent regeneration.
