Taper & Recovery Modification Guidelines for Our Training Plans
Need to Add Another Race to Your Training Plan?
When you purchase a triathlon training plan from us, your training plan is designed to prepare you for your goal race. However, like many athletes, you are probably doing shorter training races in the build up to your target race.
We provide these downloadable taper and recovery guidelines as a resource so can easily modify your training plan workouts to accommodate shorter training races without negatively impacting your training for your goal race.
Adding a Sprint or International Triathlon into Your Plan
These guidelines assume that you’re using one of our training plans and that you’re racing a sprint or international race as a training race – i.e. a good, hard training session to practice race day and measure fitness.
Adding a Half Distance Triathlon into Your Full Distance Plan
These guidelines assume that you’re training for a full distance triathlon as a goal race using one of our training plans and that you’re racing a half distance race as a training race – i.e. a good, hard training session to practice race day and measure fitness.
