No more races for me this year. Not sure yet what I will be doing next year, but I’d like to h e a productive offseason. I have ideas of what I want to do, but not yet how to make a plan:
Swim: lots of technique work to get better catch/pull/body position. Using my underwater camera a lot
Would like to do yoga 1-2x a week
Strength training and mobility. Figure out what exercises are best and how long/often to strength train. Ryan Flaherty says hex bar deadlifts are the best for runners/cyclist types. Dropping the weight at the top. Add squats? Kettlebells? Rowing?
Not sure what kind of run/bike workouts to do and how they should fit in.
My gym also has a “speed school” that is a separate camp run by a guy working with athletes trying to get more “explosive”. I may look at that and see if it would be worthwhile.
What do your offseason plans/workouts/goals look like?
