Plan Description

WattsUp 12-Week Sub-60min Ironman Swim Training Plan

Target a sub-60-minute Ironman swim with this advanced 12-week triathlon-specific training plan designed by Team WattsUp. Structured around five swims per week, this plan builds weekly swim volume progressively from 15 km to 21 km, maximizing aerobic endurance, speed, strength, and open-water readiness. Key sessions emphasize pull buoy and paddle work to build upper-body power and reinforce efficient technique tailored to wetsuit and open water race conditions. Ideal for experienced triathletes looking to break the one-hour barrier with purpose-driven, high-volume swim training.
