 Expert 647 Sarnia, Ontario | Subject: RE: How do you remember what your swim workout is? I print my scheduled workouts off on the computer. Then place them in a large ziplock bag. I don't time all my laps, but I usually pick a few from each workout to remember and note later on. You get better at remembering workouts with practice. |

Regular 169 Lilburn | Subject: RE: How do you remember what your swim workout is? We had some construction done at the house recently and there was some leftover Tyvek...I cut out a few squares of that and wrote my workouts on it with a Sharpie. Works great.

Champion 10471 Dallas, TX | Subject: RE: How do you remember what your swim workout is? agarose2000 - 2009-01-13 6:46 PM I've now come across a lot of varied swim programs. Most of them are multipart, meaning that in one day, you'll warm up, do some drills, kicking, intervals, more drills, and cooldown. It gets pretty complicated pretty fast. How do you all keep track of what the workout is? I tried printing out some workouts in miniature form and "laminating" them with tape, but I lost the little cutout after a week or two. When I try and remember what the entire workout is, I have no chance unless it's a very, very straightforward one. (Like swim 1600meters nonstop.) How do you all keep track of what intervals at what pace and what rest periods you have to do in today's workout? Do you just memorize it all, or do you use some sort of aid, like a notebook (waterproof?) or something along those lines? I would write my workouts on an index card. Index card went into a sealed Ziplock baggie. I would prop it up beside the pool. Easy stuff.  |

Extreme Veteran 582 Denver, CO | Subject: RE: How do you remember what your swim workout is? I took a notecard and covered it with contact paper. I use a dry erase marker to write my workouts on it, then stick it in a ziplock so the marker doesn't come off in my bag or at the pool. Then when I get home I just wipe off the workout and write out the new one for the next day. Easy peasy! |
