Download or read book Triathlon Success written by Mario Schmidt-Wendling and published by Meyer & Meyer Sport. This book was released on 2024-03-01 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long-distance triathlons are becoming increasingly popular as thousands of athletes compete in more than 200 races globally each season. Every one of these athletes requires quality training information and experienced coaching advice. Drawing on his 20 years of coaching experience, Mario Schmidt-Wendling provides the best training information for ambitious triathletes competing in Olympic- to Ironman-distance triathlons, making Triathlon Success a must-have practical guide. This book does not offer generally formulated training plans, but rather considers an athlete's individual situation, such as their performance level, which means the athlete is given the most important basics to be able to make the right decisions for his or her own training. Trainers will also find the book useful as both their work and the most important aspects of training theory for the long-distance triathlon are highlighted and explained. In addition to the extensive material on training and competition, the triathlete will find relevant information on equipment, nutrition, and even how to prevent those typical mistakes made during training in all three disciplines. All of the training content is enriched by numerous practical examples, and the provided test procedures help triathletes diagnose their own progress. Useful information on topics such as injuries, illness, and training and competing in the heat, as well as a sample 16-week training plan round out this ultimate training guide.

Download or read book IronFit Secrets for Half Iron Distance Triathlon Success written by Don Fink and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013-12-23 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is the Half Iron-Distance the most popular triathlon distance? Because it is the perfect length for busy athletes with demanding career and family responsibilities. Full Iron-Distance races require such painstaking planning and sacrifice that it’s difficult to keep life in balance. The Half Iron-Distance is accessible, while remaining challenging. Also known as the “70.3” for the sum of its 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike ride, and 13.1 mile run, the half-iron triathlon is not simply a race for which an athlete can use a full-iron training regimen chopped in half. Doing so would in no way approach maximizing an athlete’s performance. The races are performed at completely different intensity levels, with completely different approaches. As a result, the training is completely different. IronFit Secrets to Half Iron-Distance Triathlon Success does for the half-iron what Be IronFit has done for the full-iron. It provides three sixteen-week training programs—Competitive, Intermediate, and “Just Finish”—and details everything an athlete needs to know to successfully prepare for and maximize performance at this racing distance. In as little as four months, any athlete can be physically and mentally ready for the world’s most popular triathlon challenge.

Book excerpt: Training for and completing a triathlon is one of the most grueling life experiences anyone can have, requiring a degree of personal commitment, individual strength and iron will that few people possess.

In Finding Triathlon, professional athlete Scott Tinley explores the world inside and outside endurance sports, seeking answers to age-old questions. Part memoir, part cultural exploration, Tinley uses the language of sports to speak universal truths. Told through anecdotes, both personal and shared, with a critical, inquisitive, and often humorous interpretation of a life lived through the medium of sports, Tinley reflects on the sport of triathlon, honest competition, and the drive to improve ourselves as a whole, looking to understand how and why we live our lives.

Whether you’re training for the next big race or you’ve never run a mile in your life, Finding Triathlon speaks to the champion in each of us, demonstrating how making the decision to push ourselves to succeed in our dreams can affect our life, our world, and our future.
