Now that you know your #goals, have the objectives in places to reach them and have decided on the top priority #races, it's time to assign weekly training hours your #trainingSchedule. Don't worry, this is as easy drawing by connecting numbered dots.

Now that you have established the #race #priorities for your athletes it’s important to divide up the training season into different #periods. Each of them serves a different purpose and is aiming to improve one aspect of your athletes performance. The earlier the season is the more we are focusing on #basicAbilities while at the same time keep an eye out down the road when it’s time to get more #raceSpecific as the first A race of the season gets closer. Let’s have a look at a sample #periodization and how to divide up the season.

Now it’s time to plan the next #racing #season. This is one of the most exciting parts of your #annualPlan because it will directly shape how your athletes season will be split up. One thing that is important here is that not all races are equally important to each of your athletes. That’s why you are going to assign them priorities A, B, and C. Let’s dive right in and create the best possible schedule for your athletes.

The number of #trainingHours in the coming season, which includes everything from #running, #cycling and #swimming (for #triathletes) to weights and cross training all determine the training #workload an athlete has to work through. Just like with most things in life, too much or too little is not ideal. If your athlete has high training workload, the risk #overtraining and injury while too little will cause your athletes to lose #fitness. For this reason it’s very important to set the right amount of training volume and help your athlete out as much as possible.

Now that you have certain #goals for the #nextSeason it’s important to review the assessments of your athlete’s #limiters. Limiters are race specific weaknesses that are holding your #athlete back from performing at their maximum. A hilly course, for example, puts a lot of emphasis on force and endurance. Having a deficit in any of those areas will lead to poor performance on race day. Now is the time to address those limiters and improve one or more by a certain date to enable your athlete to have the best chance at a great race. Let's see how to define #trainingObjectives for the next season

#Goals can be viewed as the destination you or your #athletes have. ❓What is it that they want to achieve next season? Is it improving on a previous time for a certain #race, qualify for a major event like the Ironman world championship in Hawaii or a major marathon. ✅ It’s important to start with a goal that will give you a clear target you can work towards throughout the season with your athletes. Just as a mountain climber has their sight on the peak so do athletes have one or more key races in the season they want to do well. ❗Today, we will look into everything that a good goal needs to have.

I order for an #athlete to have the best possible chance at reaching #peakPerformance, coaches have to carefully balance #trainingStress and #recovery. To avoid guess work it’s important to have a structured plan that will help coaches always know where their athletes are and towards what goals they are working. Athletes will be able to see what lies ahead and get ready for the coming sessions. Let’s first zoom way out and look into planning a year.

Something a little unusual today. Over the past few weeks a lot of content started coming up where #fitnessinfluencer started talking about how #running is either bad, a waste of time, or useless. When asked for evidence it all boils down to personal stories and "a friend of a friend had this problem" situations. This is our attempt to put things straight. We won't be linking to their videos to avoid giving them more attention but if you have 15-ish minutes you can listen to a well meant rant :) Link to the full video is in the comments.
