Look Like a Tri-Athlete?


For too long in the fitness business, Triathletes have been given a bad rap for being good athletes, but not having ver asthetically pleasing physiques. Well I am here to tell you that even though there may be some truth to that traditionally, If you train right, eat right, and rest right. (All of these things I teach you step by step), you too can have the best of these two worlds. No matter how diverse they may seem.

The 12-Week Triathlon Programs focus on developing muscular endurance and strength. The program begins with lower weights and higher repetitions to create a solid conditioning base for the muscles. Then, a transition from this conditioning base into strength by using heavier weights and less reps as the weeks progress will occur. It is ideal to take 48 hours of rest between each weight training session. However, if scheduling makes this hard to do then simply choose the Consecutive Day Plan. With these Triathlon Programs, training with any combination of days is easy!

Throughout the length of the Triathlon Programs, the manipulation of the sets and repetitions for each exercise will be based on periodization concepts that involve changing the intensity and the volume of the workouts.

The starting point of the program is based on an initial fitness level. With feedback, the actual progression of the program will follow the body's unique adaptation process to exercise. Fine tune the program to include all the exercises that feel the best.
