GoSwim GoldSwimming Set of the Week - May 5, 2012
0 commentsCelebrating Cinco de Mayo with a little speedwork this week.
Freestyle - Open-Water Rabbit
There's a certain loneliness about training for open-water swimming, especially when you do your training in a pool. This drill serves multiple purposes to teach and help break the monotony that comes with 5,000-meter swims.
Main Set Thursday - March 12, 2012
Working pace today, and practicing the ability to stay relaxed on the front part of each swim or race.
Butterfly - Fast Fin Fly 2
We decided to reshoot and repost this drill because when we originally posted it, there was no sound on the video. On YouTube, when people see the old version, they commonly respond that there are no flip turns in butterfly... in this drill, there are.
Swimming Set of the Week - January 6, 2012
This week's set combines speedwork and easy recovery swimming...a good mix for mid-season speedwork.

Swimming Set of the Week - May 27, 2011
This week's set, like Glenn's kick set from May 25, 2011, demands close attention to effort and pace...and the ability to do math in your head while swimming.
Butterfly - Underwater Weapon
Ultimately, the sport of competitive swimming is about racing. Finding what skills, or weapons, work best for you in those races is key to winning.
Main Set Monday - February 14, 2011
A nice main set this morning getting the heart rate up a bit, and then working some pace stroke.
