avatarI'm at www.TriSwimCoach.com, a resource for beginning through intermediate level triathletes looking for help with swimming. The site features a free email newsletter offering tips and articles on triathlon swimming. I have also written an electronic book titled “The Complete Guide to Triathlon Swimming” and created "The Essential Triathlon Swimming DVD", both available on www.triswimcoach.com.

    This month, drills make up about 15% of each workout, and we’re continuing intervals. The focus will be on finishing your pull and again, hip rotation.

    Practice these three workouts each week for 4 weeks. This month, drills make up about 15% of each workout, and we’re continuing intervals. The focus will be on finishing your pull and again, hip rotation.

    Workouts are all quantified in yards. If you swim in a 25 or 50 meter pool, keep in mind that you will be doing a bit extra with each workout. Each months' workouts will also come with a glossary of terms at the end so you don't get confused.

    Feel free to modify the workouts as needed, but do your best to complete everything.

    Day 1
    Warm Up: 400, breathe every 3 strokes.
    Drill: 6 x 75’s, Swim-Kick-Swim (DPS) by 25.
    Rest= :10
    Main: 4 x 200’s, 4 x 100’s
    #1-4) On Cruise interval.
    #5-8) Descend, focus on finishing your pull- all the way through, as if pushing water towards your feet. Get faster throughout, on cruise interval +:05.
    6 x 50’s: Breathe every 3, 5, then 7 strokes by 50. [.....]
