Welcome back to another Case Study episode presented by TriVelo Coaching.

In this unique story, we're not talking about a typical marathon PB or FTP improvement. Instead, we're diving into the journey of an athlete who was once a top-tier Australian Masters Champion, and whose ability was competitive against elite pro time trialists. However, years of injuries pushed him to start from scratch.

When you're an athlete who's fallen so far from your peak form, restarting from scratch is as mentally challenging as it gets. 

We share this tale because many athletes face similar setbacks, and the path back can seem insurmountable.

Listen is as we document Dave's comeback story.

As with all our case studies, we'll explore his journey from rock bottom all the way back to almost peak form.

How To Prepare For Your First Ironman [Case Study]

One of the biggest mistakes we see in athletes is they are rushing to get ready for a race, and they are doing it without an optimal level of base fitness.

Majority of athletes that come to us are very fit, much fitter than the average person. But does being fit and decently trained mean you have a good base?

No. In our experience, most athletes have a much lower base than what is necessary.

So how do you base train properly and set up the rest of your season for the most success?

If you do this right, you will have the ON season of your life.

As always, this podcast is brought to you by our proud sponsors Giant Bikes. For all your bike training and racing needs, ride life, ride Giant.

How To Do BASE Training Properly (Triathlon + Cycling Offseason)

Join us as we dive into a unique case study where athlete and coach navigate the delicate balance of pushing limits while honoring constraints. 

In this episode, we delve into the case study of Fiona, an already seasoned endurance athlete seeking to conquer the Ironman once again after two decades. 

From juggling a busy job and family responsibilities to squeezing in early morning training sessions, Fiona's determination actually needed pulling back as we aimed to train less for better results, and hopefully an Ironman World Champs qualifier.
