Triathlon has seen huge changes in the past few decades; it has grown in popularity; been recognised as an Olympic sport; and witnessed a rapid increase in standards of performance at all levels. These changes have been accompanied by major developments in training principles and methods. Two of the UK's top triathlon coaches, Steve Trew and Dan Bullock, have teamed up to write 100 Essential Triathlon Sessions, the definitive training programme for all serious triathletes. These 100 sessions - 30 swim, 30 bike, 30 run and 10 brick - have been developed and honed over many years and have proved effective in improving performance. 'The sessions in this book are absolutely spot-on, there's a reason why you should be doing them, a time, and a scale so you can fit in with your level of fitness and aspirations.
