Hi Rob,

I use the plans from Matt Fitzgerald's book Triathlete Magazine's Essential Week-by-Week Training Guide It has triathlon training programs for all distances and ability levels, It is the best $20 investment I have ever made.

Good Luck
Brian

Hi Rob,

Brian has a good suggestion. I have heard great things about the book. Unfortunately with anything like that, it then becomes a generic program that is self-guided/motivated...which isn't always the easiest thing to do. Our programs start at $100/month. If you check out www.livefitcoaching.com we have a breakdown of the programs. Thanks for the interest and hope you have an excellent holiday season.

Regards,
Nick

Hi Rob:

Be careful with a canned program. It might be easier and more economical to find a program from the web or out of a magazine. You are not the same as the next triathlete, has your training been the same as all the triathletes you race against....it shouldn't be! A good program should look at the time you have available and your strengths and weaknesses.

Sit down really take a look at the last couple years and you have races, what went right, what went wrong, did you get injured, when and how, and how did you train in those years. Consulting a good coach is worth the time as you should be able to enjoy our sport not go through the motions of training.

Take Care
