See how the body reacts after HHM and only do Tuesday if you feel ok. We could easily swap that for something lighter. But overall a strong week and back over the 150pts again which is a great target. Any problems let me know. Keep up the great work Mitch.

10 Mins CD @ Easy Pace RPE: 3
Don’t go off too fast as 20 reps is a lot. You should feel like you’re working at a very high effort level towards the last 15 seconds of each rep. Go get ’em!
A good home workout for the legs. No weights needed, but if you do have some that will add to the difficulty. Recoveries around 30-60s. If time is limited then combined two exercises together. So whilst recovering from squats for example you could be doing your calf raises. This could save you as much as 15 mins.
It’s said that 1 minute of swimming has the same benefit as 1 minute of running. So a nice 45 minute swim replaces an easy 45 minute run and takes away any impact. Ideal if you are struggling a little with injury.
60 Mins @ Varied Intensity (RPE: 3-9)
A great way to get the heart pumping to some banging tunes. Have fun 😁
*reps/seconds on both sides
A really good home workout for the core and legs. If new to this, don’t worry about hitting the seconds or reps. Do what you can and slowly build up to the targets.
For example you might find you can only hold a plank for 20 seconds at first, which is fine. Don’t push too hard that you get injured. You’ll soon get strong and be able to add more seconds.
120 Mins @ Easy RPM (RPE: 2)
Important to get some decent time on the bike given on race day that will be your longest discipline.
60 Mins Swimming @ Easy Pace (RPE: 3)
It’s said that 1 minute of swimming has the same benefit as 1 minute of running. So a nice 60 minute swim replaces an easy run and takes away any impact. Ideal if you are struggling a little with injury.
