Is resistance training included?
This training plan includes specific recommendations on how your strength training should progress throughout the course of the months leading up to Ironman Canada, including information on weights, sets, and repetitions. Are there events included leading up to the Ironman? Three triathlon or triathlon simulations appear on the calendar leading up to Ironman 1 Sprint, 1 Olympic, and 1 Half-Iron. These are crucial for sharpening the mental aspect of racing and practicing perfection under pressure. You are also encouraged to use cycling events such as century rides to complete several of the longer rides in this training plan. Does this program include coach support? At any time while completing the program, you may e-mail basic program-related questions to our coaching staff at elite@pacificfit.net. A question such as “Can I substitute an Olympic for a Sprint race?” would be acceptable, while a question such as “I’ve injured myself and need to modify the next 6 weeks, can you help?” wou
