Description

If you’re like most of us you excel at one or two of the three sports in triathlon. But guess what? Attacking your weaknesses can often improve the others as well. Today, we look at how and why to put more time into things you’re not good (or natural) at. This goes from spending more time in a certain sport to figuring out the little secrets to what Free Speed means with regard to racing. We get into the idea of shooting for the sun and landing on the moon along with what that REALLY MEANS. We can talk about things, plan them out, imagine certain outcomes, but it really comes down to doing work. And that might not always be the kind of work you think it is. The easier your “fast” feels, the longer you can hold it. But how do you get to that point? What are some good training strategies that make going fast feel easier? Topics: Just showing up Shoot for the Sun, Land on the Moon? Aiming differently at the target Rekindle competitive nature Rising tides raise all ships Seed money or sell something?? We avoid doing things we’re not good at, but . . . Which side of the body do you favor? Passive improvements Balancing the left and right side Picking races for different types of athletes Strong arm/Weak arm The key to lowering your run time Returns on investments Hibernate and shed as you go? Run economy Real Free Speed The easier your fast feels the longer you can hold it Coaching Inquiries Mike Tarrolly - CrushingIron@gmail.com Robbie Bruce - C26Coach@gmail.com www.c26triathlon.com
