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 training methodology, our 19-week Norwegian Training Olympic Triathlon Plan - Level 2 uses a combination of carefully controlled moderate-intensity interval workouts and lots of low-intensity swimming, cycling, and running to deliver fitness and performance breakthroughs.
Who is this plan for?
Our Level 2 plan is intended for experienced competitive triathletes looking to crush their next Olympic-distance triathlon. You should be comfortably able to train nine times per week for up to 90 minutes at a time before starting.
How is the plan structured?
The plan is 19 weeks long and features three swims, three bike rides, and three runs per week, plus one rest day. The training load builds gradually (with recovery weeks at 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15, and tapers at 18 and 19), beginning at 7:20 hours and peaking at 11:53 hours in Week 10.
Intensity Type
This plan presents workout intensity targets by Heart Rate and swim by Pace. Other intensity type versions of this plan are also available. Each workout can be exported to a supported device for automatic guidance. See our Structured Workout page for more information.
Do You Have a Guarantee?
Not sure which level is right? Review our Level Comparison Charts. Our Intensity Metric Guarantee allows you to switch to a different intensity type (HR, Pace, or Power) for your purchased level and distance plan.
Does the plan include Strength Training?
This plan is paired with an optional Free or Premium Strength Training plan designed specifically to complement this schedule.
