@emiltriathlete: Every finisher once stood where you are — unsure, busy, and wondering if they could do it. You don’t need perfection. You need progress. This beginner-friendly plan builds your endurance, confidence, and race-day mindset, one week at a time. Here’s how 👇 📆 Beginner 70.3 Training Plan (Base Builder) Monday – REST or LIGHT RECOVERY • Stretch, yoga, or 20–30 min walk • Let adaptation happen — recovery is training Tuesday – RUN (Endurance Intervals) 45–55 mins: • 10’ warm-up • 4 x 6’ steady effort (2’ jog recoveries) • 10’ cool down Wednesday – BIKE (Endurance + Cadence Work) 60–70 mins: • 10’ easy spin • 5 x 6’ moderate (90–95 RPM) with 2’ recoveries • 10’ cool down Thursday – SWIM (Technique & Control) 40–50 mins: • 200m warm-up • 4x50m drills (catch-up, fingertip drag, kickboard) • 8x100m steady (15–20s rest) • 200m pull • 100m cool down Friday – STRENGTH & MOBILITY 30–40 mins: • Core control and stability • Bodyweight squats, deadlifts, rows • Glute and shoulder activation • Finish with stretching or foam rolling Saturday – LONG BIKE (Aerobic Focus) 1h45–2h15: • First 75% steady aerobic • Last 25% slightly higher effort (race rhythm) • Optional brick run: 10–20 mins easy jog Sunday – LONG RUN + SWIM 🏃 60–80 mins steady, easy effort 🏊 30–40 mins relaxed aerobic swim ⸻ 💡 Why it works: ✔️ Focused, realistic, and beginner-friendly ✔️ Builds endurance safely ✔️ Balances training and recovery ✔️ Creates habits that last beyond race day #First703Journey #TriathlonBeginner #HalfIronmanGoals #TrainConsistent #SwimBikeRunStrong Motivation Running løb løber triathlon quote quotes inspiration lifelessons staystrong bestversion beatyesterday

just did 70.3, training up for full ironman, and the thought of doubling the distance meaning double the trainings is quite daunting
