Off-Season/Maintenance

Stay sharp without staying switched on.

The off-season isn't dead time, and it isn't more racing intensity either. This plan holds your fitness where it needs to be, keeps you moving and structured, and gets you into the next block without the fitness losses or injury risk that come from either doing nothing or quietly training like it's still race season.

Who this is for

Athletes between race blocks who want structure without the demands of a build phase. Suited to anyone coming off a hard season who needs recovery built in rather than assumed, and to athletes maintaining fitness through a period without a target race on the calendar.

Structured for how you train

Each distance is available in four combinations, so you can train exactly how your equipment and usual approach support, swim is guided by RPE and pace throughout, with bike and run structured to match your setup:

  • Bike Heart Rate, Run Heart Rate

  • Bike Power, Run Heart Rate

  • Bike Power, Run Pace

  • Bike Power, Run Power

What's included

  • Structured swim, bike, and run sessions built for maintenance, not for racing

  • Strength work included, since off-season is when it's easiest to keep consistent

  • Unlimited email support, direct to the coach who built the plan

  • Delivered through TrainingPeaks, structured from day one
