Subject: 13 weeks out from IMFL
I haven't been doing any strength training during my Ironman training (to speak of) and am also guilty of skipping ab workouts. It's been so tough to juggle the training and three kids, summer activities, etc. I only work PT and stay home with my 3 girls during the day. In a few weeks all three of my girls will be in school for at least 4 hours per day for the first time EVER. Sad, but also allows me some extra time to train and even hit the gym for a class or two. Is it way too late (end of August) to add in 1-2 strength training sessions per week? I would probably put together a plan based on Ironman training recommendations that includes upper body, abs/back, and light on the legs. I could start the last week in August and carry on until I fly out for IMFL the last week in October. Thoughts on this?? Too late to start something like this? Will it inhibit my training for the peak weeks?

Thanks in advance!
