This is a sample of Base Training that will happen for 4 weeks with 5 days of workouts and 2 days for recovery. Each month, a new workout will be sent to the membership that will slightly increase in time and intensity in order to complete an Olympic Distance Race. For members with other commitments and goals, this workout schedule will be a guideline and can be altered to fit their individual needs, goals and abilities.
