Subject: RE: Ironman Training I honestly have no idea about the peak weeks but Phil's stuff looks about right. I'm using Carmichael Training and my coach only gives me a month at a time. On the one hand, I'd like to see the whole plan but this also keeps me in the now plus we adjust as needed.
So far the plan concentrates on getting at least one long workout in each discipline per week. I do each discipline 3x a week with the weekends having the longest run/bike. The distances/times change every week but here is this week just to give you a clue how CTS does their training. It's usually a 3 week build then a light week and then build another 3 weeks, always with drills in each discipline. None on the bike this particular week but sometimes I work on high cadence, sometimes pushing a big gear, etc...
Monday: rest day
Tuesday: 1hr swim with drills, 50min run with fartlek drills
Wednesday: 1hr swim with drills, 1hr bike
Thursday: brick workout 1hr 15min bike/30 min run
Friday: 1hr swim with drills
Saturday: 40 min tempo run, 4hr 30min endurance bike
Sunday: 2hr endurance run, 1hr recovery bike Edited by Lookingtoride 2004-09-23 10:13 AM
