Plan Description
Train Like a Norwegian!
You don't have to purchase a lactate analyzer or do double threshold workouts to benefit from the measured and methodical approach to endurance training that started in Norway. Powered by the proven 80/20 Endurance methodology, our 19-week Norwegian Training Half Distance Triathlon Plan - Level 0 uses controlled moderate-intensity intervals and low-intensity sessions to deliver performance breakthroughs.
Who is this plan for?
Our Level 0 plan is for athletes who prefer a low-volume program for a successful half-distance finish. You should be able to train six times per week for up to 50 minutes before starting.
How is the plan structured?
The plan is 19 weeks long with two swims, two bike rides, and two runs per week, plus one rest day. Training builds from 3:22 per week, peaking at 7:40 in Week 17, with built-in recovery and taper weeks.
How Do I Measure My Intensity?
This plan presents intensity by Heart Rate and swim by Pace. Other intensity type versions are also available. Workouts can be exported to supported devices; see our Structured Workout page for more info.
Do You Have a Guarantee?
Review our Level Comparison Charts to find the best fit. Our Intensity Metric Guarantee allows you to switch to a different intensity type for your run and bike workouts within your purchased level and distance.
Does the plan include Strength Training?
This plan is paired with an optional Free or Premium Strength Training plan designed to complement your triathlon training.
