...I don't wanna quit or reduce my strength training. I also don't want to overtrain because the last time I started this process a leg injury took me out of commission.
Most of the Tri programs I've seen have a limited amount (if any) strength training incorporated. I'm planning on doing a Sprint length Tri (5K run, 20K bike, 750m swim). Don't have a race date targeted but need a focus for my cardio training as well as some variety anyway.
Right now I'm doing 3 strength sessions per week. If I can't get to my home gym, I do a FBW and then target specific areas at home usually w/my PT. I'd really prefer not to cut back on the weights but was considering cutting back to 2 sessions per week and just doing FBW.
Anyone ever done this and not pulled back on their strength training? Suggestions, and experience greatly appreciated.
TIA
