This plan is designed for the beginner level triathlete that desires to complete or improve their overall performance at the sprint distance. The 12 week program emphasizes “quality over quantity” for the busy athlete. Weekday workouts last one hour or less so you can maximize results and then get back to life. There are 8 workouts a week that are intensity focused, including endurance, progressive endurance and tempo sessions. A recovery week is included at the end of each 4 week block to allow your body to absorb and recover from all the hard work. Each workout is highly structured as you progress through a gradual warm-up, main set and then into a cool down. Intensity levels are based on Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE).
The Sprint Triathlon - 12 Week Basic plan is designed by Endurance Lifestyle Group coach Barry Baird and embodies his passion and philosophy of quality workouts to get big results while maintaining a balanced life outside of training.
