Plan Description
Unlock Your Potential: Beginner's Training Plan – Low Volume (24 Weeks, 10.5-14.5 Hours per Week)
Embarking on your first Full Distance journey or starting from a lower fitness level? Our comprehensive 24-week plan is tailored just for you. If you can swim for 30-45 minutes, cycle for 1.5 hours, and run for an hour, you're ready to dive in. For those looking to take it up a notch, we have intermediate plans here.
Our multi-faceted plan includes workouts and weekly coaching insights on training objectives, race planning, nutritional strategies, and newly added psychological skills training. We aim for holistic development, preparing you physically and mentally. The 'why' behind each phase guides your smart training.
All cycling and running sessions are structured workouts, downloadable to your training devices, Zwift, Trainer Road, and more. Say goodbye to planning and hello to performance.
Swimming also gets smarter. Many of our swim sessions are crafted with the workout builder, allowing direct transfer to your training device. No more soggy paper poolside! We also provide initial pre-plan testing and weekly coaching insights to fine-tune your race prep and mental game.
