New to the forums and BT, so bear with me while I ask a question that I am certain has been asked before (although I couldn't find it anywhere).

I am training for an OLY and doing 4 swim, 3 bike and 4 run workouts a week.  My question is simple - on days that I have multiple workouts (say Bike and Swim, or Swim and Run, etc.), should these work outs be done in succession (i.e. back to back with no rest period like doing a brick) or should I wait between workouts?  Schedule is not an issue as I have control over my time and work hours.  But to be honest, I just have been doing them back to back, because I figure that is what I am supposed to be doing.

Thoughts and comments would be greatly appreciated.

Try this article - it's a good one.

On days that you have multiple workouts, unless it specifically says 'brick' (run right after the bike), you don't need to do them back to back unless it's the only time you can do both.
