Our full day triathlon skills camp is a comprehensive training day designed for newer athletes who are looking to enhance their triathlon skills and abilities, or seasoned members looking to improve their times. This camp provides a unique opportunity for triathletes to come together to learn from each other and train under the guidance of experienced coaches.
The day begins with a brief welcome and overview of the days objectives. We will then divide the day into small components to better focus on each aspect of triathlon.
In the swimming session we will breakdown the common fear with open water swimming and participants will learn techniques such as proper breathing, body positioning. We will focus on open water swim skills such as sighting, drafting turning and navigating through a crowd. A wetsuit is strongly recommended.
During the bike session participants are coached on bike handing skills including mounting, dismounting, cornering, and will receive instruction on gear selection, hill climbing and descending.
We will break for lunch and hear about nutrition for triathletes as well as demystifying and understanding transition. Participants will have an opportunity to practice transition skills as well.
The running session will talk about basic form and mechanics as well as pacing strategies, and activation exercises to prevent injury.
Throughout the day there will be breaks and opportunities for participants to ask questions and receive feedback. At the end of the day there will be a group Q & A session to address any outstanding questions on programming, races, injuries, and future training.
Overall this full-day triathlon skills camp is an excellent opportunity for triathletes to improve their triathlon knowledge, tri skills, meet other athletes, receive expert coaching and guidance.
