So you’re new to multisport, have completed a couple of races or simply want to refresh your training programme? Whatever camp you’re in, over the next year we’ll advance your triathlon performance to a level you never thought possible. We’ll feature three 12-week training plans and one eight-week block that’ll take you into race season 2011. The plan is aimed at sprint- and Olympic-distance athletes with part one covering the period from late summer into autumn. Training hours come in at around 4-6hrs per week.

 

This plan works in conjunction with 220 Triathlon magazine, with many of the sessions listed here explained in more detail in Beer’s Masterclass, which starts in issue 250, on sale for four weeks from Tuesday 27 July. A few pointers… If you miss a session, don’t panic and try to cram in as much as possible on a separate occasion. Instead, ensure that you replace missed sessions with ones that you’re weaker in. Also, note that swims exclude 400m warm-up and 200m cool-down.

 

Happy training and, for reference, the next eight-week block will go online on Tuesday 19 October 2010.
