Swimming Set of the Week - February 26, 2010
This week's set offers a way to introduce some really fast swimming, but without destroying the nervous system.
Swimming Set of the Week - February 19, 2010
This week's set is a trimmed down version of a set that Glenn posted a few days ago...AKA it's a set for the rest of us :)
Swimming Set of the Week - January 29, 2010
This week's set uses a descending sendoff and combines freestyle with choice of stroke (or IM).
Swimming Set of the Week - January 22, 2010
This week's set is 9 X 200 with lots of rest, which means it's quality yardage
Swimming Set of the Week - December 4, 2009
This week we're posting a set of broken 100s. This would work for an early taper...or a quality set even if you're not tapering.
Swimming Set of the Week - April 24, 2009
This week's set is in response to a recent post in the Go Swim forum regarding "spinning" while racing.
Swimming Set of the Week - April 17, 2009
This set of 100s offers a "take it to failure" challenge as well as a mental challenge to keep track of the sendoffs. As you progress, be ready to deal with those two voices in your head... the one telling you to swim fast enough to make the next sendoff, and the one telling you to slow down so you don't make the next sendoff.
Swimming Set of the Week - February 24, 2009
This swimming set comes from my good friend Chris Weissman. Who made him do it I'm not sure, but it's a swim set that can cover a large group, with many ability levels, and is as challenging as it is adaptable to any swimmer.
Swimming Set of the Week - February 3, 2009
This set of 225 IMs will help you focus on how fast you FEEL rather than on how fast the clock says you're going.
Swimming Set of the Week - December 9, 2008
This week's set is a favorite at taper time -- roughly two or three weeks away from a big meet. It asks you to do 12 X 100, descending time gradually, and with control, until you're within six seconds of your target race time on the final 100.
