In this week's episode, Coaches Jacqui and Oliver discuss the importance of off-season training. Triathletes tend to fall into the trap of taking a gap season, only to fall behind and spend the spring making up for lengthy time off.
We discuss how to avoid that trap, remain consistent in training, and scale back to allow for adequate recovery - and so your family and work colleagues remember who you are.
Listen for tips on how you can find your consistency, work on technique, and stay motivated through the winter.
Remember, you can ask the coaches questions.
Having a race to prepare for is great motivation! Try a sprint or super sprint at the Award-Winning 2025 Crowle Triathlons: 27-April and 31-Aug, 2025.

In this episode of the Triathlonology podcast, Coaches Oliver and Jacqui discuss what sets them apart from other race events and other coaches (at least what they've been told).
Everyone remarks, what a wonderful time people have had at our events. They’re so friendly and laid back and welcoming.. And I think that is our ethos .. that we want everyone to feel welcome, that they're going to enjoy themselves.
We've removed all the things that we've hated when we've done other events in the past and made improvements because we want as many people as possible to enjoy what we enjoy.
If you want to do it and enjoy yourself and learn new skills, come and see us. We love it because that's what it's about.
It's about every person, whatever their shape or size, fitness ability, fitness level, it doesn't matter.
We encourage everybody, whatever your ability or fear. We encourage you as an individual, and we'll always find something positive to say about you.
Just come and have a go because everyone has to start somewhere.

In this episode of the Triathlonology podcast, Coaches Oliver and Jacqui discuss the challenges and strategies of mastering longer form racing, such as 70.3 and Ironman type races.
They emphasize the importance of swim training, as it's the first discipline in a triathlon and can significantly impact the rest of the race.
They also discuss the need for strength and endurance in cycling, suggesting big gear sets and tempo sessions. For running, they recommend hill sets and easy runs for conditioning.
They also stress the importance of rest and recovery, particularly sleep, as well as proper nutrition both in daily life and during the race. They suggest being adaptable and having a backup plan, as no plan survives first contact.
They also highlight the benefits of having a coach to help put all the pieces of the puzzle together.

In today's episode, we explore what it means to be a coach and what kind of experience makes up a good coach.
As Ollie says, "You don't have to be a horse to be a jockey."
We explore the pitfalls of professional athletes becoming coaches, and that's not always the best choice.
Ted Lasso is a perfect example of a great coach who wasn't a professional athlete in the sport he coached. :)
As always, please send your questions and feedback to our email. We'd love to hear from you.
