Endurance Nation OutSeason Training Plans

The OutSeason Mojo
The reduced volume of this time of year creates the opportunity to focus on high rate of return training activities and become significantly faster.
On average our members improved their Functional Threshold Power on the bike by 15% and their 10k run by 2:30.
These results directly led to personal record setting performances in 2008 by our athletes.

Athlete Input Guides Our Work

"I have reached a new level of fitness since participating in the Off Season Plan with Endurance Nation. In the first 6 weeks alone I took
1.5 mins off my 10k time and increased my FTP on the bike by 10 watts!! The support in the forum is outstanding and Rich and Coach P
are in there everyday with direction. I have found they listen to the input of the EN members and are willing to adjust the plan
as things move along. An even better perk has been the relationships gained with the other participants.
From all different walks and perspectives but with shared goals.
As long as there is an EN I will be a participant. " -- Gina

Why Should I Use A Training Plan?

If you are training for a triathlon, you likely realize you need a training schedule to get you there. As you look about for a solution, you are presented with two options: expensive, one-on-one coaching or a generic training plan. The endurance coaching and marketing world has conspired to tell you that you that the best option is an expensive, customized training solution constructed to meet your unique needs.
This same coaching world tells you that a generic training plan is an inferior solution. As former, high-dollar, one-on-one coaches,
we'd like to share a couple things with you. First, the person trying to sell you on the $300/mo coaching solution is
the guy offering the $300/mo coaching solution. Think about that. Second, after coaching hundreds
of athletes of every flavor you can possibly imagine, we can tell you that there are
95% solutions that work for 95% of the people 95% of the time.

Coaching as you know it is largely about managing or customizing the details within the margins of that solution. Regardless of which option you choose, the product delivered to you is a training plan. Whether written by a $$$ coach "just for you," or photocopied out of a magazine,
it's still a training plan. What matters is the effectiveness of that plan and the support surrounding it.

Proven Effectiveness
Our training plans are in their sixth generation, the end-product of coaching hundreds of individual triathletes. The plans have been revised, six times, in response to the results and feedback of the thousands who have used them. Review the results and testimonials of our athletes. ALL of these athletes, from 13hr finishers to Kona qualifiers used the same 3-4 training plans. None of these athletes have paid Endurance Nation more than about $800 for an entire season of coaching. Make no mistake: we are very, very good long course triathlon coaches. We have simple evolved away from expensive one-on-one coaching and towards creating efficient training and support tools.

Unparalleled Support
Inside Endurance Nation, we have built an online community and complimentary support mechanisms that outperform any 1:1 relationship. Our plans are constantly updated - we review them every year based on direct athlete feedback, input, and race results.  Through our world-wide network of athletes, someone is always "online" at Endurance Nation.  Most questions are answered within 24 hours, and typically by several athletes giving you the benefit of different perspectives on your same question.  The support materials for our plans are all designed from a learning perspective. We don't want you to keep coming back, month after month, paying us for our mysterious coaching methodology.  Instead, our mission is to make you as smart and as fast as possible, the best self-coached athlete you can be.

So when someone asks "Why Should I Use A Training Plan?"
Our answer is simple: How can you afford not to?
