Course Information

Overview of the Workshop

The British Triathlon Strength & Conditioning workshop is a one day coaching CPD workshop containing a mix of practical and classroom activities designed to develop your understanding and ability to effectively coach S&C sessions.

Developed in conjunction with British Triathlon Strength & Conditioning coaches, the workshop focuses on the following areas:

• Introduction to S&C in Triathlon - What you need to know?
• The Needs Analysis Process
• Programming Principles
• How to deliver effective preparation and warm up activities
• Lower body core conditioning and upper body exercises

The workshop content has been designed to allow coaches to deliver S&C sessions within a club environment with minimal or no equipment. The workshop does not cover Olympic or power lifting.

In addition to the workshop, coaches will get access to the British Triathlon S&C resource via the Learning Hub. This includes a large suite of videos of S&C exercises as well as the resources used to deliver the workshop.

Coaches who attend the workshop will be able to deliver body weight focused S&C sessions within the remit of their coaching qualifications. It does not extend a coaches remit to deliver weighted Olynpic or powerlifting style sessions.
