1. Fueling 2. 80/20 rule, 80: Low Heart Rate, 20: Intense Training (maffetone method) 3. Utilizing block training (Maximise specific sports) 4. Race day strategy plan ( HR, Power, Cadence or Watts) with a nutrition plan 5. Utilizing sweet spots ( 90% of ftp) and Big ear work for cycling (Build leg strength) 6. Triathlon is a strength sports (Keep especially lower body training) 7. Essential Equipment. Fuel, Good pair of running shoe, GPS watch, HR monitor, bib bike, helmet, Sunglasses, cycling shoe, bike & bike computer, googles, swimming cap, wetsuit 8. Equipment doesn’t matter that much. Get the bare min ( Don’t be overwhelmed and dont feel the need to purchase everything) 9. Post Race recovery plan ( First 14 days are super essentials, Keep a aerobic training) (Sleep, hydration & nutrition) 10. Backwards training. Make a list for the next day.

Thanks ...you are cool

Thank you, saved me 20 minutes.

[@josephsantangelo2801]

All good advice here for sure. But if you’re looking to do your first 70.3 Ironman don’t over complicate it. Keep it simple. Have fun, don’t die, make a lot of mental notes as you go of things you did well and things that you didn’t do well. That’s how I approached my first 70.3 Ironman. I also bought a used tri bike for $350 for my first race.

[@Sneedl-Woods]

thats true dude, simple is key

[@runforyourlife7229]

Thank you for the tips! i'm gonna first stick to training for a marathon though before hitting the next project which will be a triathlon - very inspiring videos, thank you:)

[@christopherwestley8478]

Great video bro! Really well edited and clear. Awesome to watch

[@SBoots29]

I started 2 years ago with wanting to participate in a triathlon. This is by far the best advice. Because of Covid and everything canceled I had to do my own races. Yes I am guilty of buying as good of equipment I can afford. the result, I enjoy training and can't wait to participate in a real race. Winning not my first goal, that would be to finish and have fun. thank you for the Info. I have been doing the backwards planning for most of my life. I guess that comes from a regimented up bring.

[@oliverdelallama]

Logical and practical as always. Thanks for the tips Nick!

[@illt3ck]

This is such an informative and well made video. Very creative y'all.

[@PackBackerTom]

You are damn awesome Nick! Very excited about your race, you're gonna smash it! Wish you the best!

[@K.Stroh_]

Wetsuit also helps you hugely with buoyancy. My first tri was ten times more work in the swim without a tri suit. Very important piece.

[@victoriawhite8751]

Blown away with the creativity with this video!! 👏🏾👍🏾

[@PhoenixRose-ch9xg]

Great tips! Just beginning my triathlon journey. Love the application of the 80/20 rule to easy training vs. intense training. That is a great tip along with building an aerobic base

[@Marvin-Tucker]

Keep going nick!. You inspire a lot of people man Also these tips are just so helpful

[@HomeTeamRock]

Super helpful... thank you! I enjoyed this whole series. Hopefully we get to a Boston marathon Series.

[@inneslubbe7693]

Great video Nick with some valuable tips. Stretching/foam rolling for recovery I have found to be quite an important element for me personally. Do spend in any time on such for your recovery? It wasn't really a topic discussed during the Ironman prep series.

[@aw27.13]

[@johannvangabriellelargo7502]

Thanks for the tip, as a the student of the game. I stick to form, nutrition and rest. I keep my training nice and slow, probably 3-4x a week. Also app like 360wellness helps me a lot when it comes to planning some race like olympic or 70.3 distance.

[@TheReimanEffect]

Great video!!

[@daskanguru140]

Concerning the Gear: You really don't need an extra bike computer (especially if you already own a GPS-watch) and a powermeter is really nice to have but going of a mixture of percieved effort and heart rate works fine as well. You really don't need clipless pedals and cycling shoes either (they are great for keeping your feet in place, assisting your pedalling technique and giving you some extra sprinting power but provide no direct performance gain), in fact you might be better off without them if you are new to cycling because you'll probably crash with them at least once

[@truth-Hurts375]

What a lot of fucking bullshit...we did sub 9hr ironmans back in the 80s without all this and still had to work full time as well.

[@HirachieOfSociety]

Yup... I did my first half Ironman on a 500 dollar Giant bike, lapping people who had 5 thousand dollar Felt bikes... It's not the frame of the bike, its the engine powering the bike.

[@daskanguru140]

@@HirachieOfSociety It's kinda both to be honest. You can buy a lot of speed in cycling if your engine is decently big already, but I agree that you should train that engine first before spending thousands of dollars on an expensive bike. Any decently working road bike with aero bars is already quite a fast mashine, but at higher speeds (35+ km/h) you'll start to feel the money gains

[@markosverdhi]

If you guys don't wanna buy expensive clipless pedals and shoes, buy some straps. They work with whatever shoes you own, they do pretty much the same thing as clipless pedals and they are easier to bail out of. And they're SO cheap... $25-30 is pretty much all you need.

Nick do you prefer a specific type of hat? Thought about getting one for running. Thanks!

[@smb06]

Hey Nick - are you planning to do a full IM still? I know IM TX was postponed (or canceled?) but Waco has a full that is new, there are definitely options out there. I'd be pretty bummed if I was training for a full and only got to do a half.

[@Yos0023]

Very helpful video Signed up for the 2022 Chicago triathlon, this video is a great go to for game planning and getting gear ready. Any suggestions on entry level bikes? Also would you recommend training only on that bike or would a road bike be sufficient for training few months out?

[@josephsantangelo2801]

I called every bike shop within 50 miles asking if they had a used tri bike or used road bike under $400. Don’t buy before u ride it though. I found a bike shop that had a used tri bike and a used road bike both for $350. I went out there and road both. The tri bike I thought was easier to ride so I went with that. If you spend too little of money you might get something unreliable. I thought $300-400 was a good spot. Still paid for checkup/tuneup or whatever you want to call at my local store once I got home. I did put a little bit more money into it. But still much, much less expensive than buying new. And dont forget to get the right size too. Good luck!

[@TheOfficialUdiyo]

Nick, do you suggest taking creatine? Especially for triathlon training? Just started taking it this week. I've noticed a 5% difference in my lifts.

Hey Nick, would BPN be able to make a cleaner version of G1M sport? Something without natural and artificial flavors? I would love to try it out but I'm not a big fan of some of the ingredients.

[@franzfutscha9712]

I bought a common bike 400€, best ASICS shoes in an outlet center 120 €, googles and swimming suit I had already. Season card for the swimming pool 75 €, if I still practice in one year I will buy a proper bike, have a nice summer and to get started is 80 % of the success
