Triathlon

The elements of the PEAK Centre Triathlon Program have been designed specifically to ensure that each individual and each discipline receive the specific training required to perform. Our coaches have the experience working with hundreds of triathletes in preparation for various distances (Sprint, Olympic, 70.3, and Ironman). 

There are 3 elements to the PEAK Centre Triathlon Program:

Swim Training

The PEAK Triathlon Swim Program has been designed to offer many unique characteristics which are in align with the testing, training and coaching philosophy that is already evident with the existing PEAK Centre sport specific programs.

Bike and Run Training

Utilzing sport specific testing and discipline specific training plan design (Sprint, Olympic, 70.3, and Ironman), the bike and run portion of the PEAK Centre Triathlon Program will ensure that you will be more than just ready for race day; you will be prepared. 

Bike Training

The PEAK Centre Cycling Training Program has been designed to ensure that all elements of power, speed, pedal stroke mechanics, and positioning are optimized for continual improvement. 

"Since becoming more focused and precise in my cycling training through PEAK Centre, not only have I been able to increase my power and speed on the bike, but I am also more efficient which means I have more to give on the run." 

Run Training 

The running portion of the PEAK Centre Triathlon Program follows that of the cycling program; initial and continual testing in the PEAK Centre Testing Lab ensures that your running training will be on track each and every step of the training process.

"Running was the greatest obtacle in my triathlons. I seemed to always lose time at the end of my races. By becoming more precise and focused with my training speeds and durations I have been able to cut my Ironman run time by over 30 min and my 10 km race times by over 10 minutes. Quality not quantity is my new motto."

The initial and continual sport specific testing for both the bike and run in the PEAK Centre Testing Lab ensures that your training is specific to you right from the start and throughout the training process. Utilizing Lactate and V02 testing we can precisely evaluate your current level of cycling and running fitness, then apportion a specific amount of training time and intensity to each discipline, ensuring optimal improvement.
