Yeah he’s really upped the strength and activation sessions. 30/40 minutes every morning and now I feel things working off the bike not just with 1km left like before.
Swims still pish but we have accepted that and moved on, I’ll get more efficient I’ll just never be as quick as my bike/run.
Training works. Who knew.

They're pretty much half price on sport pursuit at the moment aswell. Good training is going well for you I was prescribed similar 30-40-60 min z2 runs off the bike plus one long z2 run with a tempo finish all with just a few sets of 200m strides at the end and 10x 1min hard hills once a week 3-4 weeks out and I wondered how I was going to get fast without any 2-5 min quick intervals and nothing at threshold which is where I would be mostly running off the bike but it really did work because the volume was decent and I got used to running on tired legs off the bike. I did have to do loads of stretching especially hip flexors to make sure I was moving well especially when jumping straight into the run after the harder bike sessions. Before that my running off the bike was 5-10% slower than just running but this the difference between the two was only 2-3%
