The impact of training load on injury and illness in a 12-week training period for an iron-distance triathlon by Berry, Darryn

“…BACKGROUND Given that triathlon is recognised as an official sport by the International Olympic Committee (IOC), a focus on injury prevention strategies for participation in triathlon is necessary. A model for injury prevention programme development that is used currently is the Translating Research into Injury Prevention Practice (TRIPP) model. …”
