From time to time your schedule and life will dictate your training. Even with the best of intentions and timing, finding the time to train can be a challenge. Our coaches have put these notes together for you to get back on track.
“SWING DAYS”
Training swing days allow you to move your schedule around a missed session to another day. When you see this day in the calendar it means it is the best day to add or shift a missed session as follows; should only be a Swim, bike or strength session and not run. Runs are too risky to cause an injury when being moved.
ELITE TEAM MEMBERS
-If you would like to adjust the schedule for a run, move it on the calendar and seek your coaches blessing please : ) Once you have adjusted training peaks on the calendar notify us and we will approve 👍👎 and or make a schedule change or suggestion.
-Swing days should not compromise the rest of the week and often times a swing day will also have another session so be mindful that you cannot truly "make up" a session.
-You may also add on an extra one 30 to 90minutes of easy riding on your long ride each week provided it is done in Z2 or less, and also no more than an RPE of 5! That equates to ~20-80 TSS points. More than this and the schedule may need a modification.
-Swims; you can add an additional 30-60minutes of easy and up to moderate swimming. (Note swims are the easiest on the body and have the most schedule flexibility.
-When all else fails... let it go. You can't make up a session and there lots of sessions ahead that are important. Move forward and upwards! Looking for an “approved” list of extra credit sessions? Please email our coaches to have them shared with your training peaks account Info@Tristarathlete.com
