Hi, you've kept your log going for a long time! When cycling, do you aim at a certain wattage?
Great journal, I am new to triathlon, I was wondering if you know any good books or websites where I can get good information on swimming? I have been reading a couple triathlon magazines and looked at a website, perfecttri.com that was helpful, but I am still struggling in the water. Thanks alot!
Swimming is by far the toughest leg for me and most triathletes who were not high school or college competitive swimmers. Beginnertriathlon.com has beginner to expert triathletes. Also, you might want to look into Total Immersion books or DVDs. They didn't help me much. Have you had swim coaching?
Hi Dutchie. Sometimes I aim for wattage, other times I aim for distance, other times for speed, and other times for heart rate. I think it is good to ride a lot but ride at different paces.

deadlift: 225#:5x5, 275#x1
1:30 on stationary bike. Intervals for 1st hour, 180watt steady state for 30 minutes.
Saturday: Held 262 watts on stationary bike for 41:00.
Friday: busy with work and life
Thursday: Held 200 watts on the stationary bike for 1:40:00.
Wednesday: Hard work day. 1 hour on stationary bike. 800 yards in pool - kicks and laps.

I mean how is this possible?
Best of all it really WORKS!
This unique innovative exercise and weight loss system is the brainchild of Joel Therien and co-founder Chris Reid. It is called and is taking the Fitness and Weight Loss Industry by storm. It is FUN and EASY and ultimately you only workout for a day-3x per week. That in itself is unheard of and the fact that it WORKS makes it even more amazing and unusual.
Both Joel and Chris have been using this system for the past 20+ years while they were both competitive athletes in World Class competition.
Joel Therien - was a very successful Body Building athlete in World competition.
Chris Reid - won the World Power Breaking Champion in Tae Kwon-Do in 2004.
They lived and breathed this system and become products of this system of training and weight control. It catapulted them into successful competitive World class athletes and they have adhered to this program ever since they left the circuit and continued on with their careers.
The program has a proven track record and has been tested for a number of years and shows quantifiable results which will "rock" the foundation and myths of the traditional style and methods now being adhered to by the Fitness Industry. is dedicated in pursuing and attaining optimum health as a Worldwide mantra and is bringing this tried and true system to HELP in the fight against obesity and lifestyle excesses.
Through this exciting program anyone can become the BEST THEY CAN BE! After all everybody can find 7 Minute Workout during the day to exercise and increase their strength and stamina. The age old excuse of I don't have time does not exist anymore, NOR does the "I hate to exercise" retort...because believe it or not, after starting you will actually LOVE to exercise and will LOOK FORWARD to it.
Who can do it? Anybody.....
- all ages
- all shapes and sizes

The program is simple and effective, cost is very affordable, staff support and training is phenomenal, and the ongoing motivation and interest in your personal WELFARE and SUCCESS is excellent.
