So wise!! As a fitness coach and a triathlete who is over 50, who spent over 4 years coming back from overtraining, I totally agree with your philosophy and the value of substituting some miles from strength and mobility training.

Thanks Taren, been trying to get in to strength work and more recently some king of training plan because I move into 65 age group very soon!

This video is pure gold

Thanks for running through all four distances!

[@chenyixiang690]

Love the backlighting!

Just from getting feedback from my body. It feels that Biking + Running + Strength training is the ultimate combo. Throw in swimming as the cherry on top for actual race training.
However getting the proper calorie intake is vital as well. I try to replace every calorie I burn in the day.

This video has helped a lot!

[@peroxman]

Very good explanation and example plan.

Hi Taren, love your recent videos and explanation. It actually got me thinking about getring into mottiv for my olympic in September. How does the plan take my status in the three disciplines into considerstion?

[@cindyswaine5512]

Thank you for your explanation on why strength shouldn’t be done on a rest day. A lot of us like to throw the strength workout on the rest day so we don’t have that guilt of not doing anything.

[@runspace]

I always consider the BASE-phase of any training plan to be focused solely on endurance building, then later introducing the hard intervals. That way you don't shock the system with too much intensity on top of high volume. When the body has become more used to the higher volume towards 60% of the training plan, you start adding tempo and intensity to sharpen up;) Just my meager take on it! Thanks, Taren;)

Strength is spelled wrong on the blackboard

Hey Taren, love the video! the build up to overdistance is a bit unclear, wk1: 40, wk2: 44, wk 3: 27, wk4: 44? 30? 47? what would the distance be on the 4th week?

[@simonmills1225]

Great video

[@mikerazor]

Awesome

[@seideinkingbymarcelmooshei5147]

Something I don’t understand is you said we are building the goal of hitting e.g 60-70k bike ride. But when should we hit it? Every week? I am just starting training for a triathlon next year and infam a bit overwhelmed tbh haha
Thanks for the video!

[@coryplymel2404]

What intensity are the Long Weekend Days at? Zone 2?

[@personalfitnessco]

How about a full rest day in the week? Is it good enough to have a easy day for a rest day? Or do you really need a full day of doing nothing? Thanks for the video, very helpful as usual.

[@troyawitt]

FYI - the kettlebell strength videos link in the description doesn't work any more. 😞 Are they the same as included in the app now?

[@gamenuss22]

I have heard in the base phase you dont do hat much intense workouts, so why you are doing Therese days in The base pause intense? Am i right or wrong?

[@trbeyond]

30 minutes total? It takes me 20 just to get warmed up 😂

[@ClipTellerMedia]

I have a question. Does this plan work for a total beginner in the triathlon world?
