Rest, Research & Training
swim: 2.7k 1:34h | run: 7k 0:42h

My body feels still weak after a workout. I guess it is because I had the major event (full 70.3 distance) last week. Besides training at the borobudur-hotel yesterday, I found a very good triathlon website ("tri gators" - university of florida) posting a training pyramid and explaining nutrition cycles.



Quote: "This is Bob's training pyramid. It defines how long one should spend in each period of training. For our training plan it means we should spend 2-3 months doing overdistance and endurance training, 4-6 weeks of tempo training along with technical and tactical work, and 4-6 weeks of lactic acid threshold (LT) and V02 max (maximum volume of oxygen) training."
And here is the picture of the nutrition cycle, quote: "Nutrition can also be optimized by periodization":
