Getting Faster with CrossFit for my Next Triathlon

Описание: Most triathlon training plans are packed with long rides, runs, and swims. Mine? A whole lot of CrossFit. With just two weeks to go before my next sprint triathlon, I’m sharing how this style of training has helped me drop 20 pounds, build strength, and increase endurance — without training 15+ hours a week.

We’ll talk about the science in plain English: how high-intensity training boosts VO₂ max (your fitness ceiling), why Zone 2 fills that capacity, and how strength and plyometrics can make you a better runner. Plus, I’ll walk through my real-life nutrition approach — eating more variety of whole foods, cutting the processed stuff, and fueling for performance.

This isn’t about winning at all costs. I’m a husband, dad, and full-time worker. My goal is to push my body to its limit on race day — and show that you can train hard, get results, and still live your life.

📍 This Race: Sprint Triathlon – 500 yd swim, 15 mi bike, 3.1 mi run
📍 Previous Race: XTERRA DINO Triathlon – June 2025
📍 Current Weight: 185 lbs (Down from 205 in April)
