A Triathlon Training Guide For Novices

By Marie Robinson


If you want to be engaged in the world, there is likely no better way to do so than to enter a triathlon. Before entering though, you should first prepare yourself by utilizing a rigorous training program. Proper triathlon training will get your body ready for the extraordinary strains that will be placed on it throughout a competition.

There are many steps you can take to increase your fitness, but few will have the impact a healthy diet can have on your performance. For this reason, you should make the foods you eat a primary part of the changes you make to your lifestyle to get fit. Once you start eating the right foods, you will see both your endurance and your performance ultimately greatly improve.

To get started with your new healthy diet, first take the time to understand which foods will likely boost your performance and which may hurt it. For example, heavy greasy foods will slow you down and have a negative effect on your ability to perform. By keeping your diet restricted to leafy greens, the foods you eat will not hinder your performance and it may even help to boost it.

Once you are confident that your diet is helping you be a better athlete, you will be ready to perfect your physical training exercises. To ensure your exercises are helping you perform better in rigorous competitions like triathlons, you should do your best to stretch your abilities while training. For example, by pushing yourself to go as far as you can while training, you will likely go much farther than you would during a competition and this will maximize your endurance.

To increase your mental toughness, you can also push yourself to go as far as possible during training. By doing so, you will likely find the shorter distances you must travel to complete a triathlon much easier to manage overall. Plus, if you find yourself hitting a wall of fatigue during a race, you can rely upon your experience with training fatigue to overcome it and finish the race.

Athletes who wish to fully prepare themselves for the intense rigors of this type of competition must also increase their mental toughness though. A proper diet and a solid training regime will provide you with the foundation you need to succeed, but your mental toughness may prove to be even more essential to your success. To enhance your mental toughness, you will need to regularly expose yourself to the exhausting conditions faced during competitions so that you are not surprised by the pain and fatigue that arises while racing.

Positivity may ultimately prove to be one of the most powerful tools in your tool belt nonetheless. Positivity can help you engage in a proper training regime that will get you extremely fit. Positivity can also be used to help you push through those rather challenging moments that are oftentimes just steps from the finish line as well.

Ultimately it will be the training program you use to get fit that will depict your success in this highly competitive sport. The steps of improving your diet and increasing the toughness of your training regime should help you lay the foundations of success though. Plus, once you are in the best shape of your life, you will look and feel great all of the time.
