FAQ
Yes. A 7 day free trial is available on the monthly TRI Swim Club program. The trial gives you time to explore the workouts, coaching, and structure before committing.
All programs include direct 1-on-1 access to Coach Ziggy through the in-app chat. You can message him just like texting, and he can share videos, notes, and resources right in the thread.
Absolutely. Every cycle and session is built with purpose—whether it's pacing, heart rate targets, or recovery. You'll also find embedded demo videos and written notes specifying effort levels and the goals of the day.
Absolutely. Every program includes four distance tracks, so you can start where you are and progress at your own pace—no need to buy a new plan as you improve. Whether you're a beginner or just getting back in the pool, the structure is built to meet you where you’re at and grow with you.
Yes. Each session is built with four distance options: Short, Medium, Long, and Performance, so you can train at whatever level suits you that day. There's no need to stick rigidly to one track; the structure is designed to flex around your form, fatigue, and schedule.
You can complete every workout without equipment, but for the best results you'll want fins, paddles, a pull buoy, a snorkel, and a kickboard. These are standard tools that most pool swimmers have access to, and they're integrated into the technique and drill work throughout the program.
TRI Swim Club is built specifically for triathletes, not swimmers. That means the training is designed around race pacing, fatigue management, and conserving energy for the bike and run, not just swimming fast in isolation. Every session has a defined purpose tied to how you'll actually perform on race day.
Very much so. Through the app you can connect with triathletes from around the world who are following the same training, allowing you to share progress, and be part of a group that understands the unique challenges of balancing swim, bike, and run. Everyone is working toward their own goals, but there's a real sense of shared experience in doing that together.
TRI Swim Club is $40 per month. You can try it free for 7 days before committing, giving you time to explore the workouts, coaching, and structure.
