Just looking at the Tri programs, I am guessing the timings shown below exclude any run and swim hours? Is there a way to see how much time is allocated/planned for run and swim? Example below is Olympic: - Low Volume (2.3 Hrs/Wk) - Mid Volume (3.7 Hrs/Wk) - High Volume (5.7 Hrs/Wk) ---

So the plan description (see screenshot below) gives a general overview. To see a week by week breakdown you can add the plan and it will show the total time for each week in the calendar. ![34%20AM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/trainerroad/original/2X/c/cf70c1dd7f608aa1d8a4aff2372a61d312abf3b3.png) ---

I’m not currently a TR user so cannot add anything to the plan 🙂 Hence asking for the clarification! ---

Here’s a snapshot of Week 2 of the Olympic Tri Base plan, hopefully this helps give you an idea of the time commitment for the run/swim workouts! ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/trainerroad/original/2X/b/ba84b920428dc44244d33fd29272fbe0c7101547.png) ---

Thanks @Bryce, so low volume is stated as 2.3 hrs/week from what I can see on the TR website, so that just refers to the bike right? If I read the description posted above by @Scheherazade it’s around 5 hours a week total? Sorry for being pedantic, this other thread of mine will explain why it’s important at this moment!

From logging out and taking a look, yes, on the tri plans the hours shown on that overview page refer only to average cycling hours/week. A lot of the workouts in the library also have +/- versions with slightly higher/lower intensities depending on how they’ve been modified. ---

If I read the description posted above by @Scheherazade it’s around 5 hours a week total? Sorry for not being more clear, yes you’re absolutely right. 2.3 hours is the cylcing time only.
