First week of the build is done. Not perfect, but that’s ok. Week 1 Totals: 🏊 Swim: ~1:00 | 3,625 yds 🚴 Bike: 7:05hrs | 115 mi 🏃 Run: ~1:45 | 11.2 mi 💪 Strength: 1:03 📊 Total TSS: 757 The swims were shortened this week and I missed a tempo run. I’m not hiding from that, but here’s the thing, perfection isn’t the goal right now. Rebuilding consistency is. Now let’s talk about the strength work, because this matters more than most triathletes realize. As volume climbs, it’s important to keep up with the strength work even when the schedule gets tight and the legs are tired. Skipping it might feel like the easy call in the moment, but sticking with it is what helps prevent breakdowns later in the season when it counts most. This week I kept strength in on June 2, June 4, and June 7; short, focused sessions averaging around 20 minutes each. That’s the S2G approach in action. We’re not trying to PR your back squat in the middle of a race build. The sessions are designed to fit around your tri training, not compete with it. Three sessions. One hour total. Zero compromise on the swim-bike-run load. That’s the whole idea. Show up. Do the work. Adjust when life happens. Repeat. Five weeks to go. 💪 Are you keeping strength in your race build, or is it the first thing to go? Drop your answer below 👇 or DM

Garmin has me at a 1 today, and that makes sense. I’ve been in maintenance mode for a while, I’m ramping back up, and fatigue is part of the process. The encouraging part? My acute load is still in the optimal range. That means the work is going where it should — I’m building, not just accumulating random fatigue. Some days will feel great, some days will feel flat, and some days the watch will basically tell you to go to bed. That doesn’t mean the plan is wrong. It means the load is doing what load is supposed to do. With about 5 weeks to go before a 70.3, I’m not trying to avoid fatigue completely — I’m trying to manage it well enough to keep building fitness without digging too deep a hole. That means being honest about sleep, recovery, and how I actually feel in training, not just chasing perfect numbers. Build. Recover. Repeat.

6 weeks to 70.3 — Day 3 These next six weeks I’m going to show you how I manage my endurance training and strength training in prep for 70.3 Musselman and SuperTri New Jersey in back to back weekends. Follow along for the ups and downs. Today wasn’t about crushing a workout. It was about getting moving again. Planned:Mobility, strength, ride Actual:All 3 complete Big takeaway:The time is there, you just have to use it wisely Right now I’m less interested in hero sessions and more interested in rebuilding consistency while keeping strength in the mix. Three days down. Race day doesn’t care what happened the last 45 days. What happens next matters more. If you’re prepping for a race drop which one in the comments. Or DM. Let’s go!

Quick check-in for the group: How’s everyone feeling heading into the weekend? Not just physically, overall. Training, strength work, recovery, life… it all counts. One thing I’ve been thinking about with this whole May Reset is that progress is rarely about having the perfect week. A lot of the time, it’s just about staying connected to the process even when things feel a little chaotic. So this afternoon, take a second and check in with yourself: What feels good right now? What feels a little off? What do you want to carry into next week? You can keep it simple. Drop one word, one thought, or one win below. 👇 or DM

This is the last Friday of May Reset. So today is not about making the month look perfect. It’s about finishing with intention. Maybe this month went well.Maybe it was inconsistent.Maybe you had to keep regrouping. That’s all part of it. What matters now is that you still have a chance to finish the week with one solid effort and carry that feeling forward. Today’s options: - get your second strength session in - catch up on the most important thing that got pushed back - stop chasing perfection and finish the week with one real win Friday reminder: You do not need to “make up for” the month. You just need to follow through today. Check in with one: - DONE = I finished strong - CLOSING = I’m getting it done today - WIN = one thing I’m proud of this month or this week Drop yours below. 👇 or DM
