Subject: Training Plan Recommendations
I just finished my second 70.3 and I have an opportunity to do my first full in 5 months. I am looking for a 6 week training plan for a time-crunched athlete. I have been trying high-intensity moderate volume training for the past few months and I think that approach works for me. Due to some upcoming work and family commitments I would like to max out at 15 hours/week. There are so many options out there, if anyone could help recommend some plans for consideration I would be grateful. Thanks

i think Don Fink's is a 20 week training plan, but if you just came off a 70.3, you might be able to pick up at the 4 week mark...MIGHT being the operative word

I'd give Endurance Nation a strong look if you like time-crunched, intense stuff.

at 15h a week, you're not time restricted. That s what kona qualifier athletes are at. You can be on a very solid program and performance with this kind of time on your hand

Using a high-volume schedule for many months is not the best tactic. Build speed and skill several months out, and then transition to a high-volume IM plan.

This plan is an advanced plan in terms of volume and intensity and appropriate for someone who is looking to go under 5:00 and as fast as 4:30. There isn’t a lot of fluff in the plan.
