Monday’s Brick: Coach Ray’s Ironman 70.3 Tempo Brick #5

Tempo is an intensity that means different things to different athletes and coaches. For me, I define Tempo as an effort comfortably below the Threshold pace. It is the sort of intensity that typically maintained during fast Ironman 70.3 events. It is higher than the aerobic effort of long steady workouts, sort of in the mid-zone between the aerobic and threshold efforts. Spending more than 15-20 minutes at this intensity, helps the body practice clearing the small amount of lactic acid generated at this pace, without needing to slow down to do so. This is a perfect session for triathletes competing in Ironman and Ironman 70.3 distance events.

Monday’s Brick: William Ritter’s 70.3 Brick

An Ironman 70.3 event needs you to sustain an intensity that you can maintain for a longer duration than you can for Threshold. That’s why this session has reps at Level III (Tempo) to prepare you for your Ironman 70.3. Although this workout is targeted to Ironman 70.3 athletes, it is also great for full Ironman athletes too.

Monday’s Brick: Winter Brick Session for Muscular Strength by Tyler

The off-season is a good time to work on and develop your fitness, in particular your strength. This session combines both intensity and strength with exposure to Threshold intensity for both running and cycling. Although this session was developed for Olympic distance triathletes, it is a great session for any triathlete, including Ironman and Ironman 70.3 athletes (if it is in the early stages of your build up).
