Plan Description

Conquer the Half Distance Triathlon Desaru Coast Malaysia –

This 36-week plan is designed specifically for competitive Masters athletes like you—those ready to excel across 1.9km of open-water swimming, a 90km bike on undulating terrain, and a 21.1km run under the Malaysian sun.

Why This Plan Works for Desaru Coast

🏊 Swim Ready for the Tropics
With calm, warm waters hovering around 28–29°C (82°F), your race swim requires efficiency—not a wetsuit. This plan includes structured swim workouts and drill-based sessions that focus on technique, pacing, and open-water confidence—ideal for Desaru's clear beachfront start.

🚴 Dominate the Undulating 90km Bike
The course’s two-loop format demands strength and pacing across rolling terrain. Our plan integrates heart rate and power-based workouts to help you climb stronger, descend with control, and transition smoothly to the run.

🏃 Thrive in the Heat on the 21.1km Run
With shaded sections and scenic coastal views, this two-loop run challenges your endurance. You’ll train with brick workouts, VO2 max intervals, and heat adaptation strategies—essential for the warm 28°C (82°F) race conditions.

Built for Masters Athletes 40+
Every phase of this program is tailored to the physiology and goals of competitive triathletes over 40. You’ll benefit from:

✔️ 3:1 Load & Recovery Cycles – To build fitness while preventing overtraining
✔️ Masters-Specific Strength Workouts – To improve power, mobility, and injury resistance
✔️ Device-Compatible Structure – Seamlessly sync with Garmin and other tools—no guesswork

Race Smarter. Peak Confidently.

Base Phase (12 weeks): Rebuild endurance and strength from the ground up

Build Phase (12 weeks): Add tempo, threshold, and technical work

Peak Phase (12 weeks): Focused intensity, race simulation, and taper

Time-Efficient and Proven
With weekly training from 7.5 to 12 hours, this plan respects your schedule while maximizing results. Everything is laid out for you—no fluff, just results-driven training.
