#652 – Listener Q&A

Crushing Iron Triathlon Podcast

Great questions today! We look at starting from scratch with a Sprint and moving into an Olympic. We look at first time 70.3 nutrition and gear needs. We look at marathon training along with swim and bike. Do you hit your hard rides on the trainer or outside and how to keep intent of the workouts in mind outside. We talk about sweat tests and how they help you with nutrition. Mike and Robbie discuss their differences and how they layer into a joint philosophy. We discuss the differences of coaching women vs. men. And also get into how to work weight training into your triathlon training schedule.
