Just a few notes…

It’s that time! It’s time to kick off the Ironman Training Program! While most of you do not start for a few weeks, it is our hope to give you a host of education before training starts. Then when the volume quickly builds, you are not trying to fit it in with your training.
So please join us on Monday for the Kick Off Meeting. We will sta…[Read more]

CoachAJ replied to the topic OSP & Tri training in the forum Half Ironman Program (HIP) for Paid Participants 5 years, 8 months ago
Great questions Joe! Yes, it is my recommendation to keep on track with your Eagleman training that you hit the amount of time that the workouts calls for. If you can add additional time before/after OSP in class, please do so. If you can’t hit the entire time, please add some additional time at home. Drills or an easy spin will do just the…[Read more]

CoachAJ replied to the topic watch recommendation? in the forum Half Ironman Program (HIP) for Paid Participants 5 years, 8 months ago
Thank you all for your input! This is very helpful. Do others have experience they would be willing to share?
One quick note on the wrist HR monitors, they are very unreliable and inaccurate. While they are much better than wearing the chest HR monitor (and they can dig in!), they are measuring your HR as far away from your heart as po…[Read more]

To get the conversation started, what GPS enabled watch are others using? Do you like your watch? What benefits does it offer? Any drawbacks?
Please share your feedback so we can all learn!

Thank you Jennifer to jump starting the conversations on the forum! This is where all questions should be directed moving forward so we can all learn. If you have the question, others do too!
As for a sports watch and HR monitor, I recommend a Garmin. There are several triathlon specific (920, 935, Fenix, etc) that are waterproof. Howe…[Read more]

CoachAJ replied to the topic Ironman Louisville in the forum Ironman Program (IMP) for Paid Participants 5 years, 11 months ago
Wow! Thank you Brian for the helpful overview. Most impressively, you learned a great deal from your tune up HIM (Eagleman) and made the appropriate adjustments for your Ironman. This is what it is all about! I also know you worked hard this season on your weakness (swim), which greatly benefited you when they made the change to shorten the sw…[Read more]

Congratulations Brian on a strong race yesterday! Nice work adjusting to the changes made to the race due to weather conditions. This can throw off athletes pre race and takes some skill to prevent this from happening.
Anyway, great race! How did you feel? What went well? Where do you still have opportunity? Let us know how it went for you!…[Read more]

Hope everyone had a successful season. Perhaps some of you are still training/racing or you have decided to take up a fall road race. This is always a great time to capitalize on all of your fitness and do some single sport racing! I promise it will be fall soon enough 🙂
