  • Understandable and practical content - not nearly as many ads as other people have stated

    The content in the podcast is put together in a way that is easy to understand and implement into your training. It does not have filler/conversational content like other Triathlon focused podcasts do. I enjoy that the episodes are typically 15-30 minutes long and go a great job introducing practical pointers for your workouts/races within that time.

    Other reviews have stated that this is a very ad focused podcast. I would disagree - although he does have episode sponsors I do not find that the... more

  • Really good and know their stuff.

    I’ve been listening to TOA for a while now and absolutely love the knowledge they have on everything triathlon. They have a way of reassuring you and providing you with the confidence into race day and helping you dial in your training. Definitely recommend listening to them.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Starting IRONMAN-Specific Training Around a Full Time Job | Ep 607
Q: How do I approach training this year given a full-time job, and how many weeks out should I start Ironman-specific training?
Start with a winter block emphasizing indoor work and shorter, frequent sessions to fit a busy schedule, then progressively transition to a longer Ironman-specific build in spring, aiming for roughly 20 weeks of dedicated Ironman-specific training before Kalmar, with a gradual ramp-up to prevent burnout.
Managing Swim Start Panic, Trtiathlete-Specific Strength Training, and Training Around Your Menstrual Cycle | Ep 604
Q: Hi Rob, I listen to the podcast every week and I've learned so much from your advice and expertise. Do you have any advice as to how I can counteract the water adrenaline reaction when open-water swimming starts?
Identify adrenaline as the culprit, practice breathing control (slow, deliberate breathing and pacing), start calm with a rolling start or space from crowds, and gradually rehearse open-water swimming with others to normalize the sensations.
Dealing With Cold Swim Starts, Smart Trainers vs Gym Bikes, and Tips for Racing IRONMAN Leeds in the Heat | Ep 603
Q: Would it be better to invest in a proper indoor trainer setup for my road bike for my 70.3 prep, and which features should I look for?
Investing in a smart trainer (e.g., Kickr Core or an equivalent budget option) with power meters and the ability to simulate hills helps you train more scientifically, ride with proper pacing, and prepare for climbs; consider a setup that includes a trainer that supports cadence variation and, if possible, accessories like a climb module to simulate elevation changes.
Dealing With Cold Swim Starts, Smart Trainers vs Gym Bikes, and Tips for Racing IRONMAN Leeds in the Heat | Ep 603
Q: I trained for 10 months for Ironman Lake Placid and had a DNF due to the swim shakes; how can I prevent this in the future?
Lean athletes may shed heat faster and should plan to stay warm before the swim, use warm socks and sandals while waiting, consider a warm layer or a second swim cap, ensure wetsuit fit is snug, and practice these setups in training so nothing feels unfamiliar on race day.
Special Needs Bags, Taper Week, Aero Gains & Raceday Mechanicals: Your IRONMAN Questions Answered | Ep 602
Q: What about gear changes—should beginners switch out of their cycling kit to a run kit, or can they race in a single tri-suit?
It's perfectly fine to change between cycling gear and running gear if you value comfort and speed. If you're racing primarily for time, and your tri-suit is comfortable enough, you can stay in it for the whole ride, but many athletes benefit from a quick change to a dedicated running kit for the marathon portion.
