How To Master Intervals for Ironman
Controlled intensity
If you’re training for an Ironman, there’s a fine line between productive suffering and wasted effort.
Most beginners think intervals are about emptying the tank every time.
But that’s a myth.
In Episode 3 of my Ironman Prep series, I walk you through:
The two most important rules for interval training (that most athletes ignore)
How to design workouts that build force production, fatigue resistance, and sustainable threshold power
A step-by-step plan to progress intervals week over week without burning out
Plus, my favorite V02 Max and Threshold workout structure, and why they’re so effective for long-course racing.
You’ll see exactly how I’m executing these sessions in my own build for Ironman World Championships.
If you’re tired of guessing what “threshold” should feel like or why your workouts never translate to race performance, this episode will clear it up.

P.S. Need help understanding your training zones?
I decided to share the zone calculator I’ve been using for years.
It’s what I use for all my athletes too.
It will give you clarity on zone testing, peace of mind in training, and set you up to have fun pushing yourself.
