Xterra: Off Road Triathlon - Get Dirty

Mach3 Multisport brings another DVD to their collection capatializing the extremely fast growing sector triathlon, XTERRA! Written and hosted by USA Triathlon All-American and Xterra Regional Champ Brian Grasky, Get Dirty takes you off the road and addresses all the fundamentals that you need to gear up, get fit, and start getting DIRTY!

XTERRA, or off-road triathlon, is the fastest growing new concept in multisport with more than 100 events in 16 countries. Bordering on the extreme, this style of racing takes the conventional framework of a road triathlon and adds the unpredictability of Mother Nature. Xterra replaces the security of the open road with the challenges of undulating dirt, or mud, trails that wind between mountains, over rocks and fallen trees, through creeks and rivers, in some of the toughest conditions on the planet. Yet anyone can do it!

In just 60 minutes Brian removes the guesswork from training for and competing in XTERRA triathlon. Whether you’re already a hard-core road triathlete, a competitive athlete from another sport or even a non-athlete looking for something fun to get you into shape, Brian will answer all the questions such as:

What equipment do I need? Without some expert advice, it’s easy to spend a lot of money on things you don’t need while maybe missing out on some you do. Brian will give you the scoop so you can keep more of your money in your pocket.

What are the skills I need to ride a mountain bike? Getting into mountain biking without proper technique is an invitation to crash. With Get Dirty, You’ll learn tricks of the trade that will allow you to “keep the rubber side down” which will minimize downtime and maximize your time on the trails. You’ll get fast more quickly which will allow you to beat the spandex off your competition.

What are the skills I need to run off road? There’s more to running off the road than just buying a pair of shoes with knobby tread! Brian will give you his tried and tested tricks to build strength and speed quickly running on the trails. He’ll have you blowing past your rivals in no time.

What do I need to know about open water swimming? Cold water, mass starts, water entries and exits, training strategies to combat altitude effects—Brian explains it all and more. You’ll spend less time worrying about the small stuff and more time doing what’s important—swimming fast and feeling great.

How is XTERRA different from a road triathlon? XTERRA is NOT a road triathlon on a mountain bike! The basic premise is the same, but that’s where the similarities end. You don’t need to worry though. Brian will take away the fear of the unknown by explaining everything you need to know to dive right in!
