Plan Description

Final 13 weeks before race day for an advanced athlete who has completed Aerobic Development Phases 1 & 2 in the last 32-33 weeks.
This completes a 45 week Ironman training plan focusing on performance improvement on race day.
It is highly recommended that Ironman Triathlon Aerobic Development phases 1 & 2 are completed prior to starting the Ironman Build.
The entire plan is available as one plan if preferred.
Heavy training load is not designed for the athlete who just wants to finish, but for the athlete who wants a PR.
Make sure you are able to tolerate the volume of Ironman Triathlon Aerobic Development 2 plan before you move on to the Ironman Build.
the Build is focused on building upon the fitness and adaptations made during the Aerobic development phases and tailoring them to the demands of race day.
The workouts will become increasingly more Specific to Ironman Race Day.

Nicoli Coaching

I am passionate about sports and physical activity. I grew up a soccer player in Italy and have completed numerous Triathlons, from Sprint to Ironman.

I believe One on One coaching provides the best performance on race day.
Every athlete is different in their physiology, strengths, weaknesses and response to training.
As such, a tailored and personalized approach will provide the optimal results.
My approach is quantitative as I truly believe the saying "What gets measured gets Improved!"
