Plan Description

Preparing for the Full Distance Triathlon Japan demands a focused and scientifically designed triathlon training plan. This 36-week program is crafted for competitive Masters athletes (40+) aiming to master the iconic 3.8km swim, 180km bike, and 42.2km run courses with confidence and endurance.

Here’s how this Full Distance Triathlon training plan prepares you to perform at your best:

✔ Progressive Adaptation Framework: The first 12 weeks develop your aerobic base and neuromuscular efficiency—key for navigating the calm 70°F waters of the Tsugaru Kaikyo straits swim. The next 24 weeks emphasize race-specific endurance and speed for the fast, traffic-free Hakodate-Esashi Expressway bike and the flat, scenic 42.2km run course.

✔ Precision Training Methodology: Workouts are calibrated using max heart rate (MHR), functional threshold power (FTP), and rate of perceived exertion (RPE), helping you train effectively and avoid overtraining. This data-driven approach syncs with Garmin and endurance analytics platforms for ongoing progress tracking.

✔ Evidence-Based Periodization: Using a 3:1 model—three weeks of gradual overload followed by one week of recovery—this plan maximizes physiological adaptation, ensuring you peak on race day.

Key Benefits of This Full Distance Triathlon Training Plan:

✅ Builds aerobic capacity and enhances energy efficiency for sustained swim, bike, and run performance
✅ Improves swim technique for better stroke efficiency in calm ocean conditions
✅ Develops cycling power and endurance for the long, flat expressway course
✅ Optimizes running economy and injury resilience on the flat three-loop run course
✅ Integrates strength training to enhance tendon durability and muscle function
✅ Adaptive swim workouts and data-driven sessions sync with wearables for real-time feedback

This plan is tailored for serious Masters athletes targeting personal bests or podium finishes. With personalized email coaching support, expert guidance is available to help you navigate training challenges and unlock your full potential.

🎯 Take your training to the next level—join this elite Full Distance Triathlon training program today and race with confidence and power!
