Norwegian Method Olympic Triathlon Plans

The Olympic distance is where the Norwegian Method proved itself at the very top. Train all three sports with precisely managed intensity. Four levels, $74.95 each, developed with 80/20 Endurance. Every plan is delivered through TrainingPeaks and includes free coach email support.

Choosing your level: every distance comes in four levels. Level 0 is the lowest weekly training volume, built for athletes newer to structured training; Levels 1 and 2 step up volume and complexity for experienced athletes; Level 3 carries the highest volume for advanced, high-mileage athletes. If you are between levels, choose the lower one — the Norwegian Method rewards consistency at controlled intensity, not extra volume you cannot absorb.

Frequently asked questions

Choose based on your current weekly training volume, not your ambition. Level 0 suits athletes newer to structured training, Levels 1-2 suit experienced athletes, and Level 3 is for advanced, high-volume athletes. When in doubt, pick the lower level – the method rewards consistency at controlled intensity.

The plans are built on the training approach popularized by Norwegian endurance stars: a large volume of easy aerobic work combined with carefully controlled threshold sessions, keeping intensity precisely managed so you can train more without breaking down. They are developed with 80/20 Endurance.

Plans are delivered through TrainingPeaks: after purchase the full plan appears in your TrainingPeaks calendar with structured daily workouts. Every plan includes free coach email support, so you can ask questions as you train.

No. Plan variants are available using heart rate, pace, and power combinations, so you can train with the devices you already own. Power on the bike helps precision but heart-rate variants apply the same controlled-intensity structure.
