While each body is unique, there are some structural commonalities, such as wider hips, hyper-mobility, and torso v. leg length (to name a few) that should be taken into consideration for triathlon training. What injuries are females more susceptible to? Should additional factors be considered when getting a bike fit? How can women improve their movements to maximize their athletic potential?

What is the most valuable training block of your season? The answer might surprise you! Most athletes believe that the few months immediately preceding their race are the most important. However, there is greater opportunity for performance improvement in the training further removed from race day. Join TriDot coaches Jeff Booher, John Mayfield, and Elizabeth James as they uncover how and why the training many months before your next triathlon has the most impact on your race results.

On this podcast, they discuss common nutrition mistakes made by triathletes, the importance of day-to-day fueling and a one-year long nutrition program, the importance of proper fueling, seeking proper nutrition advice, and the different phases of strength training for triathletes.

Triathletes come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. And today's episode is dedicated to our Clydesdale and Athena athletes.
