Salford Triathlon - Training Plan
One of the most successful aspects of our involvement in last
year's triathlon was the willingness of staff to undertake training
prior to the event.
Each person who requested a training plan was given an initial
assessment questionnaire, which took into account;
- The current level of fitness
- Time available to train
- The preferred activity
- Any previous injury history.
Then we were then given a basic 4-week training plan and asked to
keep a brief diary. The diary then provided the information needed
to write the next 4-week plan.
