Overview

This is an advanced strength training plan designed for the needs of triathletes that can be used, applied, and laid over their usual swim, bike, and run training. The plan itself is designed to be 16 weeks in length and to be repeated over and over.

An "advanced" athlete in the case of this specific strength training plan is someone that has at least 2 years of continuous strength training experience previously.

This training plan comes with a few documents/resources that will prove useful to athletes while following along to the prescribed plan:
1. Strength Training Foundations for Endurance Athletes eBook - Contains basic educational and background material as it relates to strength training that will help the athlete successfully complete the strength training sessions and to learn about the benefits of strength training for endurance athletes; this eBook also comes with an Exercise Technique Guidebook included as an appendix. This appendix contains pictures and descriptions of over 80 exercises that will help the athlete successfully complete strength training sessions prescribed within the plan

In order to be able to successfully complete the prescribed strength training sessions within this plan, the athlete will need access to a gym with all of the basic strength training equipment, including:
-dumbbells
-barbells
-various weight plates and free weights
-resistance bands

Most other strength training equipment is not necessary as the majority of exercises prescribed are done with body-weight or free weights (i.e., dumbbells, barbells, etc.).
