How This Training Plan Supports Your Race Performance
.
The plan builds your aerobic base, strength, and race-specific speed gradually to ensure your body adapts to the demands of Frankfurt’s swim, bike, and run courses.
.
✅ 12-Week Base Phase develops cardiovascular capacity and technical skills with a manageable training load, starting at 4 hours per week and progressing steadily.
.
✅ 32-Week Full Distance Phase targets endurance and intensity, peaking at 15 hours weekly, matching the energy needs of Frankfurt’s rolling bike loops and fast run course.
.
The emphasis on resistance training preserves muscle mass and bone density, essential for injury prevention and power during the race. Strategic Zone 2/3 aerobic sessions protect cardiovascular health, while high-intensity intervals maintain VO2 max and speed. Neuromuscular drills enhance coordination and transitions, critical for race efficiency.

Designed for Senior Physiology and Smart Training
