Swim60minAdvancedSession Overview This 60-minute pool session uses a pace ladder — progressively faster efforts down the set, then a recovery back up — to extend your CSS range and sharpen your ability to shift gears mid-swim. Over 2500m total, you will spend significant time above CSS pace, which is exactly what race-day swim legs demand….
Run60minAdvancedSession Overview This 60-minute session builds climbing endurance by holding sustained effort on a long, consistent gradient. Unlike interval hill repeats, sustained hill running trains your aerobic system to maintain form and power output when the gradient does not relent — exactly what you face on hilly 70.3 and Olympic run courses. What You’ll Need…
Swim45minAdvancedSession Overview The 6-beat kick — six leg movements per full arm cycle — is the technique used by the fastest freestyle swimmers in the world. This 45-minute pool session drills the timing, teaches you to synchronise your kick with your catch, and builds the ankle flexibility needed to generate power without drag. Most triathletes…
Run90min+AdvancedSession Overview This advanced 90-minute long run builds from easy aerobic pace to marathon target pace across 18km. The progressive intensity mirrors the race-day challenge of running progressively stronger off a fatigued bike — developing both the physical capacity and mental discipline required for a strong IRONMAN or 70.3 marathon. What You’ll Need GPS watch…
Swim60minAdvancedSession Overview This advanced 60-minute session uses a classic pyramid structure to build swim speed at and above your lactate threshold. By progressively reducing rest intervals across five 200m efforts before building them back up, you train your body to sustain fast swimming under increasing fatigue — exactly the challenge you face when trying to…
Your transition area is your mini pit stop — and the surface you lay your kit on matters more than most athletes realise. A good transition mat defines your T1 and T2 boundaries, prevents bare feet on grit and tarmac, and makes it instantly clear which kit belongs to you in a busy transition zone….
Decathlon has been quietly building toward this moment for years. The Van Rysel XCR Tri is the French retail giant’s first dedicated triathlon-specific bike, developed over three years across 15 prototypes in collaboration with aero experts and Swiss Side wheel specialists. At £7,000, it lands in a fiercely competitive segment — but the specs suggest…
Giant has been building best-in-class time trial and triathlon bikes since the 1990s, and the 2026 Trinity Advanced SL represents the marque at its most refined. With a full carbon frame engineered around the integrated cockpit principle and a new disc-brake option joining the lineup, the Trinity Advanced SL stakes a serious claim as the…
Swim60minAdvancedSession Overview This session simulates the full 1500m Olympic-distance race swim in open water. Rather than just completing the distance, you’ll execute it with the same pacing structure you’ll use on race day — a controlled start, a sustained middle section at race pace, and a strong final push to the exit. Do this 2–3…
Run45minAdvancedSession Overview This 40-minute run session combines sustained threshold effort with short, sharp surges. It develops your ability to change pace mid-race — a crucial skill for responding to course terrain, overtaking competitors, or pushing through difficult patches during a triathlon run leg. What You’ll Need GPS watch or running app for pacing Flat to…
