Is Kris Gethin's training setting him up to conquer a half-Ironman, or is he in for the battle of his life? This week, he'll find out. Kris Gethin's Pre-Intra-Post Supplement Stack ► http://bbcom.me/2xTgoey Free & Flat Rate Shipping on Kaged Muscle Supplements | Look for the B-Elite Badge ► http://bbcom.me/2xQS4dB Kris Gethin's Man of Iron Training Program ► http://bbcom.me/2xQKUWv Judgment day has come! Well, Judgment Day number one, anyway. During this week, Kris will test his training against a half-Ironman triathlon on the same course where he will undertake a full Ironman later in the summer. Training-wise, this means that volume will go down dramatically both in the gym and on his sport-specific training, and he's not taking most movements to failure in the gym. (He still starts the week with a joyous obliteration of biceps and triceps, though.) If you're following the program in your own training this week and don’t have a half-Ironman this weekend, Kris says you can follow last week's routine instead. Or even better, you could embrace the taper, then stage your own three-sport challenge this weekend, just to see where you stand. | Training and Nutrition Tips | - "You're not going to build fitness this week going into Saturday," Kris says. "Your fitness should be in the bank already, at least a week prior. So don't even think about pushing yourself hard, thinking more is better." - Are you training for a race in the heat? Then there's no avoiding it: You must do at least some of your training in the heat. Embrace it—safely. - Do you find yourself wandering around during open-water swims? Kris' swimming coach Bailey recommends "sighting" yourself every 2-3 strokes, not every 8-10 like Kris is accustomed to. - During a deload like this, stick to 10-12 reps per set on most moves, even if it means you don't hit failure. If you don't have an event this weekend and you're still focused on muscle gain, by all means go to failure at around 15 reps. - Kris' rides and runs this week are all about keeping it easy and practicing transitions between the two disciplines - When he travels, and especially when he's traveling for a race or training, Kris splits his suitcase into two halves: one for clothes, the other for supps. - The 100-meter swim "test" on Wednesday is important if you're preparing for a race. It determines when you start the race, and you'll need that information. So take it seriously! - As Kris says on the eve of the race, he isn't here to win. He's here to finish. This is good advice for lifting, race, and life! ========================================­===== | Recommended Supplements | Kaged Muscle Pre-Kaged ► http://bbcom.me/2xRpvwl - Revolutionary Pre-Workout Primer! - Supercharge your Adrenaline and Increase Workout Performance!

The countdown to the half Ironman begins in earnest this week, as Kris deloads in the gym and focuses on form and race-specific skills outside of it. This is getting real. Kris Gethin's Pre-Intra-Post Supplement Stack ► http://bbcom.me/2k90PtC Shop Kaged Muscle Supplements ► http://bbcom.me/2k7wzQ2 Kris Gethin's Man of Iron Training Program ► http://bbcom.me/2k8wRpH In next week's episode, Kris Gethin gets to see if his hybrid training approach will pay off, or leave him struggling to keep up in their first half Ironman triathlon. Until then, his split and total training volume will taper down in preparation for the big event. Resist the urge to do more than what's written if you're following the downloadable program. (Spoiler alert: Kris can't resist that urge.) You'll be doing lots of antagonist supersets for nearly every part, so embrace the healing power of the pump, practice your race skills—if a tri is in your future, anyway—and soar toward race day as confidently as Kris! | Training and Nutrition Tips | - As Kris points out this week, the worlds of endurance and strength training are very likely starting to collide, leading to some mild overtraining. When that happens, it's time for a strategic deload. Nothing good will come of racing while overtrained! - You may think running is running, but form matters! Get that cadence—or step-per-minute count—up and your knees, hips, and stopwatch will all benefit. - Your runs and rides can't all be adventures, but neither should they all be treadmill or stationary slogs. Find loops around your home or gym, because there's no substitute for running out in the world. - Kris goes for an extra run to "detox my brain," even though he knows it's against the deload rules. If you feel the need, try to time it up with your training. If not…well, at least keep that run easy. - Cauliflower mash? It's better than it sounds, and incredibly easy to prepare. In fact, with a little bit of seasoning, it's downright delicious, and fits in any macronutrient approach. Try it! - Preparing for a race? The transitions matter. Keep practicing them, so you'll be able to nail them when you're running on fumes come race day. ========================================­===== | Recommended Supplements | Kaged Muscle Pre-Kaged ► http://bbcom.me/2ra6GkF - Revolutionary Pre-Workout Primer! - Supercharge your Adrenaline and Increase Workout Performance!

At 1.5 kilometers swimming, 40 kilometers biking, and 10 kilometers running, it's a fraction of an Ironman. Kris Gethin's Pre-Intra-Post Supplement Stack ► http://bbcom.me/2w9i6ol Free & Flat Rate Shipping on Kaged Muscle Supplements | Look for the B-Elite Badge ► http://bbcom.me/2w9hT4x Kris Gethin's Man of Iron Training Program ► http://bbcom.me/2w8TXOI So why not test everything with an impromptu Olympic triathlon five hours from home? At 1.5 kilometers swimming, 40 kilometers biking, and 10 kilometers running, it's a fraction of an Ironman. But for Kris, it's a chance to practice transitions, fatigue management, and race nutrition, while picking the brains of his fellow contributors. With his open mind and otherworldly commitment, it's no surprise Kris signs a deal this week to turn Man of Iron into a book! | Training and Nutrition Tips | - Running may seem like a lower-body activity, but as Kris points out, it's his traps and upper body that often aches the most during endurance training. For you, it may be something else. But the solution is the same: train the entire body with equal intensity to leave nothing up to chance! - Feeling sluggish this week? Kris has the cure: "Your brain is telling you to take a rest, spend a few more hours in bed. But the thing is, that's not going to wake you up, is it? So the best thing to do is the opposite: Get to the gym, get the blood flowing to your brain, improve your focus and energy a little bit. Then you're going to be able to attack the day, not let it slip away." - Not everyone has access to a watt bike like Kris does. But he says the intensity can be approximated there. The key: During your speed work, don't go all out in the intervals. An 8/10 effort that can be sustained for 4 minutes is plenty. Any more, and you'll crash into a wall that will leave you unable to get the necessary amount of work done! - Getting up at 5 a.m. is no fun, but it makes a lot of things possible. It enables Kris to get access to wide-open gyms, and unoccupied swim lanes, while the rest of the world sleeps! - Feeling slow? Focus on form. "As long as you continue to work on your technique, as opposed to speed, eventually the speed will come based on the technique," Kris says. - Every time you meet someone who has done what you want to do—a seasoned triathlete, for example—learn what you can from them. After all, making speedy transitions from swim to bike during a triathlon is an art unto itself! Kris asks many questions, and he gets better with each one. ========================================­===== | Recommended Supplements | Kaged Muscle Pre-Kaged ► http://bbcom.me/2xxfGTS - Revolutionary Pre-Workout Primer! - Supercharge your Adrenaline and Increase Workout Performance!
