Must read for first-time Iron-distance athletes
This book is packed full of great advice and easy to follow training plans. Best of all, by the end of it you really feel like the goal of completing an Ironman is not just some insane dream that you and your loved ones will regret but the inevitable byproduct of a well-balanced and healthy lifestyle.

Amazing book with invaluable guidance on how to fulfill your IronMan dreams, even while working full-time and raising a family. Great training options depending on your available training time and goals. I read it before my first triathlon; re-read it before my first IronMan and still relying on all the important advice as I train for IronMan #3. With Don and Mel Fink’s help, I went from “can I finish?” to “how [soon] can I get to top 10 in my age group?” A must-read for anyone planning to do 70.3 or 140.6.

Ironman training
Has 3 levels of training programs. Iâm trying the competitive program. Book progresses through the base, build and race phases. Is a step by step coaching program. Cheaper than higher if a coach.

before you get a trainer
I got this book in the Kindel format, may look for a printed copy for easy reference. This explains very well how training for ultra races or Triathalons is not all about training in miles but training in time and heart rate. with all the cooties-19 going on I thought I would have completed a true Tri by July 2020, so I hired a trainer and well they are following this book pretty close, in some ways I could have saved a lot of money and just got this book and followed it. wither you are new or just need a little recalibration on your training, this is a good book for you.

Ironman Chattanooga finisher
I just completed Ironman Chattanooga. This book is as excellent as the 5 star reviews it has previously received. It offers realistic training plans with time efficient advice. A friend doing the same Ironman recommended it to me and Iâm so glad she did.I donât usually write reviews but wanted to share with anyone feeling overwhelmed about attempting their first Ironman that this book will guide them through the entire process.I donât fit the typical Ironman image. I donât have the lean look of many of the triathletes showing up to races.I was the uncoordinated kid picked last in PE growing up.With this book I found not only the right training plan but the confidence to make it to the finish line and hear âYOU ARE AN IRONMANâ.

It was fantastic. I trained at the intermediate level
I purchased this book because TNT was not supporting CDA. It was fantastic. I trained at the intermediate level, but missed a few workouts due to work travel constraints. Happy to say I finished with plenty of time, I had a great time, and no injuries. I even recovered well after. Thank you Finks!

Perfect Plan
I used Don and Melanie Finkâs intermediate plan 3 times for my half iron races and have had a lot of success, so naturally bought Iron Fit for my upcoming full distance triathlon. This time I am following the competitive plan. I appreciate that the plans are consistent day to day with varying time at each activity. I truly believe in their time efficient method, and look forward to using their expertise this summer in Ironman Mont-Tremblant.

Great training advice and training plans.
I’m training for my first full Triathlon and this book was recommended by numerous Triathletes. It has training plans and tips which is exactly what I was looking for. I think hiring a trainer is the ideal way to train but I would recommend this book and “The Triathletes Training Bible” to anyone who’s training and can’t afford to hire a trainer.

A few of my friends have completed full ironman races using the Fink plans, and I’d always been a bit hesitant. I did a 70.3 on my own plan without too much difficulty, but wanted the reassurance of an established plan to get me through a full 140.6.So disclaimer, I’m only a couple of months into the plan, and I’ve not yet completed my 140.6, but I love the plans so far. The routine and planning is fantastic for getting into the swing of things and building up slowly – I can see my times improving every week; whilst maintaining a steady and sustaininable effort and improvement – something I struggled with prior.One of the odd things, the heart rate zones are bit odd. For example, most of the training occurs at zone 2 – which most traditional ranges place under 125 ish for me. But the Fink plans put this at under 158 – so zone 2 isn’t a low effort zone. I wasn’t sure about the sustainability of this effort, but it’s brilliant.Not there yet – but I’ve every confidence that this routine is going to get me through the 140.6.

Just the right book to get fit, even if you are not preparing for Iron Man. I liked the basics of fitness that have been explained so well. Now I stick by the rule of “Do no harm” while exercising. I wish there was a way to export the fitness plans directly into a Garmin watch or an app. Also, there are 3 plans discussed here. Someone like me who has a little less time to prepare needs a more customized option.
