Member  50 |  Subject: Post Tri Season Training Plan?Hi all, I've just done my first tri (and only of the season) and I am wondering what everyone does for a post season training plan other than taking some time off? I will probably do another tri next year but that is a year away and know training won't continue all year long. I've put in countless training hours and don't know what to do next. Keep in the pool 2x a month? Weight train? Spin class? Get refamiliar with the gym? TIA, |

| Modesto, California | Subject: RE: Post Tri Season Training Plan? I will be working on my limiters and loosing some excess bodyfat. My limiters are bike hill climbs and run form. I am dialing back the majority of my training to recharge and freshen up, my off season is only a month and a half long, so my plan is to relax a little and catch up on life. Then its all about training again!

Master 1639 Robbinsville NJ | Subject: RE: Post Tri Season Training Plan? x2 on the limiters. Right now my swim stinks so will continue to do that at least 2x a week (probably some lessones too) after a few week break. Also plan on focusing on the bike and increasing leg/core strength through weights. Planning on taking it mostly easy on the running to give some of my joints a break. |

Master 2491 | Subject: RE: Post Tri Season Training Plan? I'll spend a lot of hours on my bike trainer and work on the run as well. I don't get to the pool more than once a week through the winter, though I pay for that in my first race. I'm trying to focus more on fun and enjoyment and less on the training data for a while. I'm also doing my first century ride soon, so it's been a good excuse to ride a lot and not do so much of the other two. |

Expert 1260 Norton Shores, MI | Subject: RE: Post Tri Season Training Plan? really working on increasing my aerobic base and training for a 25K. The offseason is also a good time to work on one of the three aspect(s) of triathlon that is lagging behind the others. I am also excited to get into spinning to break the monotony and get some group stuff in. |

Master 1610 Kirkland, WA | Subject: RE: Post Tri Season Training Plan? last winter i really focused on running, while getting on the trainer/pool a couple times of week each. . this winter, i am planning on hitting it hard and really getting my training up to where i think it should be in order to do well at some HIM's next season, as well as maybe a late season marathon. . that said, i will probably do some running races through the fall/winter

Expert 1139 Austin | Subject: RE: Post Tri Season Training Plan? I'm planning on working on my swim a lot since it's probably my weakest. Also I have a couple more pounds of fat that I need to lose before I ramp up training for next year. |
