Club La Santa is looking forward to hosting a new Triathlon camp with Dieter and Jochen Holz. The target age group of this camp is the 50+, so men and women who have different fitness goals. You may want to lose some weight, improve your health and overall fitness, or work towards competing. Whatever your objectives are, we will help you to achieve them through well directed training and nutrition, allowing you to improve your daily routine and stay fit.

The Training

This is a training camp with a special atmosphere. The head coach Dieter Holz and his team know the most beautiful areas of the island and its quiet roads. Small training groups coupled with personal supervision distinguish this camp. You will train for the endurance sports; swimming, running, cycling and triathlon on the beautiful volcanic island of Lanzarote. Swims will take place in the 50m pool and also in the Club La Santa lagoon. You will run both on and off-road, with some sessions on the track.

The camp caters for all abilities and is designed to be especially suitable for sportsmen and women aged, 50+. During workshops and lectures you will be taught the essentials of exercise, relaxation, nutrition and a balanced diet. The camp also includes a fitness test. We expect a variety of nationalities, however the spoken languages are English and German.
