TIRTA TARUNA 66

This is our new program: swimming for triathlon, which focuses more on open-water swimming skills. Swimming is one of skills that triathletes have to be able to master, therefore in our program, we give a lot of drills and technical skills. 

 

Triathlon is the fastest growing sport in the world. It is an interesting sport because it combines swimming, cycling and running. It starts with swimming, followed by cycling and ends with running. There are several distances for triathlon races ,which are Full-Ironman, Half-Ironman and Sprint.

 

Full- and Half-Ironman are the common races in triathlon. All three sports (swimming, cycling and running) focus on endurance, strength, speed and technique. It is not easy to be triathletes because they have to be able to maintain their endurance and retain all of three sport skills. It is challenging for everyone to be able to do all 3-sport skills. If someone wants to join triathlon, she or he has to be in a certain level of stamina endurance. Preparing for a race needs six months or a year of training to be able to reach finish line.

We train to be as quick as possible because if you are working with an elite athlete a second matters.

 

The aim of the program is to help all triathleres to improve their swimming technique so they would be able to swim in the same level as swimmers. Good technique and good endurance will help them to swim faster and with confidence. Swimming is the toughest one in triathlon and to get into a certain level of swimming, a devoted time is needed. 

 

Our triathlon training program is slighly differrent than our swimming program. It would likely take place in open-water where there wll be a lot drills and breathing technique. Triathletes must be able to swim at least 2500m in every training. The techniques that we teach consist of breathing techniques, individual strokes and styles, drills, sculling (the feeling of water) and build the strength (endurance).

 

We are here to help you to be better and stronger. Come and join us!
