As we make our way through the off-season, we encourage you to remember to shift your focus and prioritize an aspect of training that is often overlooked: building strength. While endurance and cardiovascular fitness are crucial for triathlon success, developing strength during this period can significantly enhance your speed and overall performance in the upcoming race season. Strength training not only helps to prevent injuries by strengthening muscles and connective tissues, but it also improves power output, efficiency, and resilience during demanding race conditions. By incorporating targeted exercises that target key muscle groups used in swimming, cycling, and running, we can lay a solid foundation for success.
