Workout #1 : Custom
WELCOME!
Welcome to your beginner level year long triathlon training plan! This year will be a lot of hard work, but in the end it'll all be worth it!
In this plan, there will be different stages of what the focus will be for a block of time. During those stages, you will work on improving different areas, and in some stages, the focus will be putting it all together to improve your overall fitness. You will receive a message like this at the beginning of those stages, explain the focus, the amount of time, and the why behind why you are training the way you are.
For the first stage.. it will be a 4 block period. During this time you want to keep your zones lower, going no higher than tempo, which is 76-90% of FTP and 84-94% of HR. Keep that in mind while training the next 4 months.
Never get discouraged if you're having a hard week! Push through it and the results will be worth it in the end!
Best of luck!
Now.. let's get started!
