Plan Description

This program is specifically designed for intermediate/advanced triathletes looking to gain an edge in the off-season by correcting muscular and movement pattern imbalances, establishing foundational strength necessary for injury prevention, and improving neuromuscular connections for more efficient movement in the swim, bike and run.

Athletes will receive weekly check-in calls/emails to assess their progress and allow for questions.

Equipment for this phase includes free weights and cables/at-home resistance bands.

This is part 1 of a 3-part triathlon-specific strength series. Upon completion of this program transition to "8-Week Triathlon Specific Base-Early Season Strength Program" to complement early season training/racing.
