Providing exactly what the fastest growing segment of the triathlon world yearns for, Melanie and Don Fink have created a complete training guide for women triathletes with highly efficient, easy-to-follow, multi-distance training programs. Women encounter all the same challenges as men in their triathlon training and racing, but there are a host of issues unique to them, issues about which most men don't have a clue. From the stay-at-home mom to the professional woman, female triathletes face societal expectations, and unique physical and emotional concerns. Until now, there has been never been a go-to source of information and guidance. IronFit Triathlon Training for Women arms the woman triathlete with everything she needs to know to persevere and lays out exact step-by-step training programs to help her to achieve her goals. This book includes three training programs designed for women at the Sprint/Standard (a/k/a ""Olympic"") Distance, Half Iron-Distance, and Full Iron-Distance. Each program is presented at three levels: Competitive, Intermediate, and ""Just-Finish."" The reader can select the program for the race distance she wants to train for and the exact level, based on her individual competitiveness, experience, and available training time.

The strength routines outlined are cutting edge, practical, and efficient . . . and essential for those endurance athletes seeking peak health and performance."" --Karen Smyers, Hawaiian Ironman World Champion on IronFit Strength Training and Nutrition for Endurance Athletes"
