~ 6th May 2024 ~

Congratulations to all the athletes who powered through Week 1 of our new training phase, Technique & Base Training. Your dedication and commitment are commendable, setting the tone for a successful off-season training ahead. Keep up the fantastic work, and let's continue to build those good habits!

Now, let's talk about building functional strength. It's time to dust off those resistance bands and incorporate them into your training sessions. These bands are invaluable tools for enhancing strength and improving technique. Tonight, join us for a live online dryland band session with Ollie. He'll guide you through techniques, explanations, and demonstrations to kickstart your journey towards stronger, more efficient training.

A big thank you to everyone who completed their Expression of Interest for the Winter Camp. We're currently at a critical point financially, and in the upcoming days, we'll be in touch with those who showed interest to provide additional information.

With just over a month left until Ironman Cairns on the 16th of June, our dedicated LC athletes are in the final stretch of their training journey. Let's rally together as a squad to show our support and encouragement during this crucial time, cheering them on every step of the way as they prepare for their epic challenge.

Unfortunately, it's with a heavy heart that we announce the cancellation of this year's End of Season Awards night due to low numbers. We'll be hosting an athlete team meeting in the coming weeks where we'll acknowledge and celebrate all athlete efforts.

Have a great week ahead and remember to reach out to the coaches if there is anything you need.  We are here for you!

ALTERNATE SESSION

Don't Forget - Dryland Swim Session Tonight!

Attention all swimmers! Due to a competition taking over MSAC, our swim tonight has been cancelled. However, we're thrilled to offer an alternative: an online dryland swim session.

This session is an excellent opportunity to focus on essential aspects of our training. By incorporating band exercises, we'll emphasise learning the correct techniques for utilising bands effectively, which directly translates to building functional strength by mimicking swimming actions.
Moreover, we'll work on refining our technique, ensuring that the skills we develop on land seamlessly transfer to the water.

Whether you're new to dryland training or in need of a refresher, this session is invaluable.
Ollie will be online to lead demonstrations, offer feedback, and address any questions. Let's make the most of this opportunity to enhance our performance in the pool!

FUNCTIONAL STRENGTH TRAINING
 
 
 
Resistance-Bands

Resistance Bands

Resistance bands are simply a tool that helps you replicate any functional movement, while applying strength-enhancing, muscle-building resistance. As a result, resistance band training will make movements and muscles stronger while simultaneously improving movement coordination.

But...now you need to know where to get your hands on them.  You can check them out on eBay or anywhere really.  Even better if you can find suppliers offering deals for 2 sets (highly recommended as 1 set is only 1 length and you need double to do both arms at the same time). 

It doesn't matter where you get your bands from - just make sure they have different tensions (colours) and MUST come with handles.  Shop around!

MERCHANDISE
 
 
 
blacked-out-triathlon-shorts

Blacked Out Special Edition -
TA Team Cargo Bib-Shorts

This premium edition of the Tri-Alliance team shorts will be available to order one time only, due to a special pricing opportunity from the manufacturer.

These shorts are constructed using a performance Italian knit fabric with "DMR M Tech" resulting in a water repellent finish. We've kept the cargo pockets, as well as pockets in the rear brace to store important items you want to carry securely but don't need quick access to. This time we've added reflective piping to the edges of these pockets for safety in low light cycling.

These shorts come with top line chamois (gender specific) for comfort on long rides, power band leg grippers to stay in place and sturdy, compressive fabrics to maintain shape.

Due to the heavier fabrics though we recommend considering one size larger, if you have a current pair of TA Cargo shorts, the sizing is very similar in this new version.
