Plan Description
Commit. Train. Perspire. Believe. Overcome. Achieve.
The primary goal of this 10-week training plan is to prepare you to EXCEL in your AQUABIKE (1.2-mile Swim / 56-mile Bike) race.
Crafted by USA Triathlon-certified coach and former pro triathlete David Glover, MSE, MS, CSCS, this plan encapsulates his passion for the sport, his experience from dozens of Half and Full IRONMAN distance finishes (5 overall wins, 8:51 PR at IRONMAN distance) and his success coaching hundreds of triathletes.
Starting 10 weeks before your goal race, this plan progresses through two build periods (9.5 - 12.5 hrs per week) prior to peaking and tapering. Each week contains 3x swim (Tu, F, Su), 3-4x bike workouts (W, Th, Sa, Su) and 3 optional strength workouts. You will build up to: 3,000 yards (or meters) swimming and 3.5 hrs biking. Your long ride is Saturday and day off is Monday. Although not necessary, we recommend using a heart rate monitor in conjunction with perceived effort; you may use a power meter as well.
Prior to using this plan, you should be able to complete the following workouts:
• Swim: 500 meters or yards continuously
• Bike: 2 hours
Purchase of this plan includes our comprehensive 40+ page Triathlon Training Guide, which explains how to use your training plan plus email access to David Glover at any time for questions that you may have about this plan.
