New Year’s Resolutions: Time for a Check Up

Is it August already? How is that possible? Weren’t we just making our New Year’s resolutions?!?!

Yes, time flies – faster and faster every year.

So, let’s take a moment to review the goals we set in January and how we’re doing on them.

This might reveal that you’re doing great.

Or point out some helpful modifications.

Or, uhm, well … maybe you totally dropped the ball. Which is OK! Everybody does it, and you can still pick it up and run with it.

So, remind yourself of your resolutions or goals. And measure where you are today to see your progress. Are you on track for the triathlon you signed up for? Have you lost or gained weight? Are you able to lift more at the gym or run faster? Have you been able to plan those healthy family dinners?

Don’t get down on yourself if things aren’t shaping up the way you want. Just see where you can do better and love yourself for making the effort. It’s not too late to have a great “new” year!

I’d love it if you’d hit reply and let me know where you’re at.

Are you training in the Black Hole?

The Black Hole of endurance training is at about 75-85% of your maximum effort.

So many triathletes spend WAY too much time at this effort level and wonder why they are not getting faster!

One of the secrets to improving your performance is working at the 2 ends of the spectrum, on the edges of the black hole.

Low Aerobic Training or LSD, Long Slow Distance training and Vo2 Max or Speed work training.

Most of my athletes are doing exactly this right now in their training blocks and getting faster test and race times plus, PR’s (Personal Record’s).

This equates to training in your zone 5 energy system and requires a lot of recovery time in your zone 1. Staying out of the middle in the black hole!

If you don’t do the recovery interval at zone 1/2 effort you will not be likely to hit all of your intervals because you are not giving your body a chance to recover and go hard again, repeatedly.

This is a big fat mistake if you want to get faster.

Working these 2 ends of the spectrum is going to help you get the MOST our of your training!

Ready to take your training to the next level? Join me for my FREE 5 day Challenge – Triathlon Reset on July 12-16th, inside my private Triathlon Obsessed Facebook group.

The Time is…

The Time is…

If you’re looking for a sign, THIS IS IT.

  • This is the sign you’ve been waiting for.
  • This is the sign to take action you’ve been delaying.
  • This is the sign that “I’m waiting for a better time” is nothing but a lie we all tell ourselves. 

So, I’m sorry (not sorry), to end the story of “I’m waiting for a better day.” There is no better day. Today is it!

You just got THE SIGN, after all…

Start right now. Take one step in the direction you want, even if you feel unconfident or anxious. Do one thing to begin reaching your goals. One action leads to another and another… 

It doesn’t matter what those goals are. Maybe you want to do an ironman or a sprint triathlon, get in better physical shape, start eating right, improve a relationship, or save more money.

The point is that all of these things involve a commitment of DOING – and a commitment of doing, again and again OVER TIME.

Time doesn’t start when you want it to, or when it’s convenient for you, or when everything in your life lines up in a perfect row. That’s what we call a fantasy.

The reality of living YOUR life on YOUR terms? That starts with action. RIGHT NOW.

If your best Triathlon is one of those things you are deciding to take on now, Please join me for my upcoming Free 5 Day Facebook Challenge . I’ll be addressing the 5 things you struggle with in training for Triathlon based on my latest survey.

Time Management
Overcoming and preventing Injury
How to get faster
What to eat, and when to eat it
How to deal with fears, anxiety and overwhelm and of course how to get started!
