Plan Description
This is a training plan created by Endurance Strong is designed to prepare an "Off the Couch" Beginner

- Monday - Off
- Tuesday – Run Intervals (Track) and Swim Workout
- Wednesday - Easy Bike and Strength Training
- Thursday – Shorter Run / Tempo Run
- Friday - Bike Interval / Threshold Workout and Swim Workout
- Saturday – Long Run and Strength Training
