newbie

Hey, I am a football player that has hung up the cleats (graduated)... and since there are no football club teams, I need a new hobby, I did a tri in High school and would like to get back in it... but now I am 25 pounds heavier... (no not fat, football wieght)... I am wondering what I need to do to get back in tri shape... I have no problem running, swimming(lifeguard), and biking, I think I am just a bit to bulky... I am 6', 195lbs.... any suggestions...

Swim, Swim and more swimming

Like you I too played football. I was around 193 pounds and after 2 1/2 months of intense swimming workouts in preparation for Triathlons I am now 178 and in top shape. My advice, hit the pool and stay there. Work your running and biking around the swimming. Me, I'm ready for 1/2 Ironman...I feel lite, cut and ready to compete. Good luck.
