Rich and Patrick check in with the team re IMFL and Clearwater 70.3. They cover the progress of our OutSeason athletes and discuss the upcoming Tour of California! (Time: Approx 38 mins).

Coach P gets on a rant about one doode's training plan (only 56 weeks to go!), and along the way explains a better way to build your next season successfully.

Endurance Nation's coaches discuss the core concepts of effective age group triathlon training. Topics include: the basic week, fitness as work, real-world scheduling and why the traditional approach to periodization falls apart at longer distances.

All of the information discussed in this podcast is covered in greater detail in the FREE Long Course Triathlon Training Manual.
