I found another Tri in my area on Oct 4th. It's a little longer then the last one. 750 swim, 10m bike & 3.1m run. I really want to do it. My trainer on the other hand does not want me too. He said I should focus on getting a bit more weight off and train over the winter for a spring Tri. He has science on his side. Triathlons are not weight reduction sports. Don't get me wrong the weight is coming off, it's just slow. If I focused on fat burning I could lighten the load before the spring Tri and better my times.
What to do, what to do?????

I guess I am not sure why tri training is not a weight loss tool. I mean when I was in training for the half I couldn't stop losing weight no matter how desperately I tried. I guess I am just not sure where the thinking comes from...but then again I have never trained for a tri so maybe it is a whole lot different from just running. I guess if it was me I would ask WHY he/she doesn't think that it is good for weight loss. Sure the scale might not show that you are losing but do your clothes?
