 | TRIATHLON WORKOUT Posted by: triathlontrainingtv Duration: 3:18 Number of views: 693 www.rockstartriathlete.com Sick and tired of the same old triathlon workout? Its easy to get non creative and go with whats familiar. However it can get boring and stagnate your performance. Here are 5 triathlon workout ideas you can do to switch it up and keep it fun from the guys at Rock Star Triatlon Academy. 1. Swim Brick Another great pool and indoor-based session. This works very well for a time trial swim in which you're going to swim at maximum sustainable pace for 20-30 minutes. Schedule your swim to end just 5 minutes before the spin class at a gym. Hop in the water and go. After a quick 5 minute transition, race to the spin class and take whatever the instructor happens to throw at you. This is a great "fun" early or winter season triathlon workout for you cold birds. 2. Cartlek Run That's right, I didn't mis-spell Fartlek, that term that refers to random speed training. Cartlek is your trafficked road version. Here's how it works: Settle into an aerobic pace, at about 55-65% intensity. Every time a car passes you *from behind*, you must pick up the pace to a comfortable but fast run at about 85% for 100 steps. If a "string" of cars passes, then you begin your 85% stride after the last car goes by. If a car passes you during those 100 steps, you pick up the pace to maximum 100% for however many steps you have left. Once you're done with the 100 step stride, you can settle in until the next car approaches. This triathlon workout is basically Fartlek training ...

Bored of the same old triathlon workouts? Are you ready for some routines that are going to absolutely blow your mind and put some fresh intensity into your training program. In no particular order of importance, here are 15 of the best triathlon workouts that you aren't doing, courtesy of the Rock Star Triathlete Academy. 1. Treadmill Hiking Sprints You'll never think of a treadmill the same way after this massive leg strength building triathlon workout. Hop onto the belt, and after a brief warm-up, immediately crank yourself up to a brisk walking pace. Here's the kicker now bring the incline up to somewhere between 9.0 and 12.0 percent. Try to stay on that belt for 5 minutes. Your recovery from this hike is going to be a run. Bring the incline down to 1.0, and pick up a light jogging base, about 55-65% intensity. After 5 minutes, crank yourself back up to your uphill hike. Go back and forth for the time length of your workout, preferably 30-60 minutes. 2. Hulu Movie Endurance Have you discovered all the free movies yet, over at the Hulu website? If you haven't, surf over to the website, find your favorite movie, then set-up your computer in front of your indoor trainer for this longer bike endurance triathlon workout. Ride at your regular aerobic pace while the movie is playing (you may need headphones), but for every 30 ... Related: triathlon workouttriathlon |

 | TRIATHLON TRAINING - COMMON MISTAKES #1 Posted by: triathlontrainingtv Duration: 3:12 Number of views: 1,013 www.rockstartriathlete.com Rock Star Triathlete Academy Coach Kerry Sullivan gives Triathlon training advice on how to avoid the common mistakes that result in plateauing Common mistakes= 1) Never Throwing Curveballs. This error is committed by the triathletes who get into a "comfort rut" - simply mindlessly performing the exercises and workouts that allow them to mount a bike, strap on the running shoes, pull on the swimsuit or head to the gym and just cruise with no focus. They never throw a triathlon training curveball at their body, so their body eventually becomes incredibly efficient at these same ol' workouts. Sure, you should occasionally perform tried and true workouts that allow you to create a benchmark to identify progress in your training, but you don't want to do those workouts *all the time*. Here's a simple fix this week, pick one training session for each skill (swim/bike/run/resistance training) and throw a complete triathlon training curveball at your body by randomly choosing a workout out of a magazine, article, or website. Do it, and see how your body responds. Nine times out of ten, a random workout that keeps your body guessing will make you leaner, stronger and faster. 2. Exercising to Eat If the goal of your triathlon training is simply to burn calories, so that you can get to your next meal or snack - then boy, are you in trouble! What happens is that this mentality creates a weekly slog of performing workouts that focus not on performance, but ... Related: triathlon advice, triathlon trainingtriathlon |
 | TRIATHLON TRAINING - COMMON MISTAKES #2 Posted by: triathlontrainingtv Duration: 3:34 Number of views: 1,414 www.rockstartriathlete.com Triathlon coach Kerry Sullivan talks about the common mistakes triathletes make in triathlon training 1. No Strength Training Sure, most of the pro triathletes you see may *look* like lean, skinny guys and girls who have never touched a weight in their life, but the reality is that strength training goes far beyond football style deadlifts, squats and benchpress, Do you do fire hydrants? How about elastic band walks? Rotator cuff rotations? Planks? All this requires no weights, but is still considered resistance training, and is incredibly beneficial for your triathlon training program. Don't get fooled into thinking that strength training is bad for you - most of those studies were done with heavy dumbbells and barbells, not the more precise body weight and elastic type resistances you should be using. 2. Ignoring Data Do you know the power from your last bike session? OK, so maybe you haven't invested in a power meter, but what about your speed and distance? Heart rate? Do you know your average 100m pace in the pool for your priority race distance? Do you know your per mile pace in your long run, or do you ever take a GPS out with you? You're living in an age where data is fairly inexpensive, easy to get, easy to interpret, and highly beneficial. Take advantage of this and at least give yourself some baseline pace and heart rate measurements so you can track your triathlon training progress. 3. Obsessing Over Data Of course, you may also be ... Related: triathlon training |

Once you've watched the video guide, check out this nice little interview we did with him for the August 2010 issue of Men's Fitness: How is training going? I'm feeling better than ever. I've cut out the mad weeks -- I used to be a big trainer but I found if I did 35 hours one week, I'd do 28 the next then 15 after that because I was so knackered. Now I'm more consistent. I've only gone over 30 hours a week a couple of times this year. What races are you looking forward to this year? The London leg of the world championships in Hyde Park [in July]. That's a good one to do well in and get confidence up for the Olympics, because that's where the race is going to be held in 2012. What do you want to achieve this year? I want to win the world championships -- or at least get close. I'd be disappointed if I didn't get top five. How do you feel during the latter stages of a race? It screws with your mind. Everyone is trying to attack you and everyone is hurting as much as each other. It's about who wants it most. What's the toughest part of a race? The last 3km of a run is when it gets very tough and everyone is starting to think seriously about the win. How is the competition among the British triathletes at the moment? It's very good. To be honest, it's too good! We've got the ... Related: Will Clarke, triathlon, Men's Fitness UKOlympics |
