Abstract
As a good coach tackles the challenge of solving each athlete’s training puzzle, he soon learns that every athlete is unique and requires a training program specific to that athlete’s strengths and limitations. Excellent coaches prescribe specific training to fit each athlete. Beyond the individual differences seen between every triathlete, however, good coaches also need to account for the special characteristics found within some triathlete populations – such as beginners, youth, and female or masters athletes. A strong knowledge of how these special athletes may differ from the typical adult male athlete can help a coach avoid potential problems. Although triathletes from all populations share far more similarities than differences, the coach must still consider each athlete as an individual. This chapter addresses potential differences and similarities between athlete groups and gives training examples of how to help all athletes succeed at their goals. Aus dem Text
