Plan Description

The primary goal of this plan is to incorporate this into an existing triathlon training plan to develop cycling power while maintaining swim/bike/run performance. It assumes the athlete has a limited time allocation (1-2 hours per week) for strength training. This plan spans an 18-week timeline.

Program Overview
I've designed an 18-week periodized strength program following NASM's OPTâ„¢ Model that prioritizes cycling power development while supporting overall triathlon performance. The program is designed to progress through four strategic phases:
Stabilization (Weeks 1-4): Establish foundation and correct imbalances
Strength Endurance (Weeks 5-10): Build functional strength with endurance focus
Power Development (Weeks 11-14): Emphasize cycling-specific power output
Transition (Weeks 15-18): Maintain gains while reducing volume pre-race
