Why Should I Choose Tri-Alliance?
As the largest triathlon community in Australia, Tri-Alliance is based in Melbourne’s Bayside region and currently trains over 300 triathletes weekly under the guidance of eight qualified and experienced coaches.
As part of the Tri-Alliance family, you’ll receive professional triathlon-specific coaching to improve your fitness and performance, train with like-minded athletes, all whilst enjoying the social side of training. With valued partners and supporters, a large network and state of the art equipment and facilities – you will not find better value anywhere else.
What Does Training Involve?
Our Try-the-Tri program encompasses all of the fundamentals of Triathlon Training including the following;
Swimming – we’ll sort out your technique, grow your confidence in the pool and open water, learn swim-specific drills and have you swimming laps in no time!
Cycling – learn how to mount and dismount, understand your gears, use cadence and heart rate zones, ride in a group.
Running – Develop correct technique, increase your aerobic fitness, understand cadence and gain confidence in your running no matter your fitness level or speed. Nobody gets left behind!
Transition – Nail the fundamentals of transition set up, T1 (water to bike) and T2 (bike to run)
Triathlon Slang – You’ll learn all the terms, phrases and general Triathlon jargon triathletes use. Did you score a negative split in your session? What the heck does T2 or T3 mean? All this and more you’ll find out!
What Equipment Do I Need?
Don’t be fooled into thinking you need to spend exuberant amounts of money to get started in Triathlon. In fact, starting out is the very opposite. At Tri-Alliance, all you’ll need is a positive attitude, and any type of bike – preferably one with two wheels and that’s safe to ride on!
Swimming – Goggles, hat and swimmers (wetsuit too if you have one).
Cycling – A helmet and bicycle of any make, model or design is fine! Don’t forget to bring along shoes to wear on the bike, too!
Running – Joggers and comfortable running gear.
What Fitness Level Do I Need?
Tri-Alliance welcomes participants of all shapes and fitness levels. There is no prerequisite other than having a positive attitude and wanting to give triathlon training a go!
With our friendly and experienced coaches, we’ll build your confidence and help you achieve your goals. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all training, and as such we’ll ensure that your coached sessions are geared towards your fitness level and goals.
