Train smart.
Become your best.

When it comes to triathlon training apps or triathlon training plans, the intelligent solution of the future has to be dynamic, smart and fully individualized to each athlete. It’s a huge technological challenge that has remained unsolved for many years. With TRIQ, our team is finally empowering athletes to become their best in a way like no triathlon app has ever before through the use of intelligent data and real-time adjusted training.

Dynamic Triathlon Training

A triathlon training plan is often a static thing. While it’s good to have a plan, the complexity of three sports, human physiology, daily schedule challenges and shifting recovery cause any static plan to soon be suboptimal. Of course you can sit down for hours and ponder about the correct adjustments. But even after investing all that time a human will hardly be able to take into account all of the variables that the TRIQ algorithm can consider within an instant. Even online triathlon coaching and triathlon programs often suffer from the fact that time and the ability to focus on each athlete are often very limited. The TRIQ app is built to solve this issue and add an intelligence and efficiency to your training that was unthinkable before. It also monitors and considers your recovery. In addition, it detects your training automatically and adjust your next sessions even based on this if you suddenly decide to go running in the middle of the night.

Triathlon Training Plans for Beginners, Intermediates and Pros

In the past there was a triathlon training plan for beginners, a different one for intermediates and then preparation for an IRONMAN® or pro triathlon training was thought to be another thing. With TRIQ the transition becomes seamless. TRIQ checks whether your initial race goal is feasible in regards to the amount of training time you can afford to invest. From there it sets training based on the race distance you’re training for. Based on countless factors it adjusts tiny details on the way to make sure you stay healthy, on track and can become your best.

Triathlon Training Plans for Swimming, Cycling and Running

Instead of athletes having to figure out all the modalities of triathlon training TRIQ provided exact training instructions and endless variations of workouts for each sport according to each athlete’s progress. In the TRIQ app, World-class coach and sports scientist Dr. Daniel Plews adds valuable additional tips and info about the purpose of each workout to ensure that triathletes are fully informed about the steps they take on their journey and the things they achieve.

Swimming

Triathlon swimming is a challenge beyond endurance regarding the correct technique and swim motion. Based on each triathlon swimming distance TRIQ provides numerous swim workouts for triathletes. In addition we gather additional valuable knowledge about triathlon swimming here.

Cycling

Triathlon cycling is a great mix of high-tech equipment, virtual indoor rides and exploring nature while getting fit. As triathlon cycling distances can become quite long you will spend a lot of time with triathlon bike training and we have more to know about it here.

Running

As triathlon running is the last of the three sports, it is also the one where you can often win or lose the race. Triathlon running distances range up to a full marathon. To get your shoes, technique and everything else right you might want to check out these articles.

Triathlon types: Sprint Triathlon, Olympic Triathlon, 70.3 (Half) and Full Distance
