Any triathletes on /fit/ or just gymjunkies? Currently training

>not understanding endurance is the best

Is there seriously no one else that does tri or any type of endurance racing?

I did a bitch triathalon when I was in HS.
1 mile swim, 13 mile bike, 3 mile run. I used to be really into the endurance, I ran track and cross country too.

But now I wanna get big. Still miss those days sometimes.

Feel you, want to get big as well but right now to into long distance for that to be possible.
Though I do a lot of lifting and average 4 times/week but dont eat enough to make real gains.

Enjoy your lmaonohealth, shitty physique, and fucked up joints

>implying strength and low bodyfat% aren't the ultimate metrics of physical health
You get too strong, your bf% increases, you get less healthy.

You get too lean, your lifts drop as you get less healthy

You get as lean and stronk as possible, and become healthy and aesthetic.

You run for miles and you may or may not be healthy, at least you will have cardiorespiratory endurance. That doesn't speak to health or aesthetics.
It does speak to joint stress

>Implying lifting doesn't wear at the joints over time and can fuck you up just as much as endurance traing

Dumb.

Hey bro. I compete in multisport.
I love swimming, usually about 8km a week in summer but my technique is not something I like to race with so I stick to kayaking.

Where abouts is your tri being held?

Hey man, could you help me out a bit? I'm running a half-marathong in 45 days and I've never done such a long distance before. Any tips on how should I prepare?

I know I'm a little late

I cycle......but generally get shit on if I mention it on /fit/ "hurr I only cycle dat celltech bro".

I only shitpost here really. I'm not really into lifting. I do some squats in the off season that's about it. Generally I'm trying to keep my weight as low as possible.

I do local time trial events and club racing. I've always been interested in iron man events but can't run due to shit joints.

> my goal physique

Not with proper rep schemes and form.
Hence us shitting on crossfit

>he thinks lifting is bad for your joints
I bet you also think deadlifts are bad for your back, and ohp is bad for your shoulder

The fuck outta here, literal DYEL

>>38761970
They can be.
Let me guess, you have less then a few years of lifting under your belt if that and are still pushing babby weight?

Ask yourself this.
