Subject: Maffetone and masters swimming
Just starting to try the maf method for my running and biking ... However just signed up for a new gym with a masters swim class, so the question is will the hard swim workouts screw up my attempt at maf? Thanks for the help

No they will not (assuming you mean because you'll be over your "aerobic" heart rate).

Yes, sorry that is what I was talking about swimming cranks the heartrate for me and will put me over the maf heartrate. I'm new to swimming and think the masters swimming will really help so I don't really want to skip out. Thanks for the response.
