Session Plans

Session plans will be posted in advance for all sessions.

Session Overview

Technique set - over the 8 weeks we work on a different area of the swim stroke with a standard set of drills and adapting these drills or introducing different drills dependant on the swimmers needs. The focus on the sessions

Swim set - the main swim set will alternate between an endurance set (below CSS pace) and a threshold set (around CSS pace) for which the Tempo Trainer will be an important tool. The rest in these sets is just as important as the work element to ensure the correct physiological adaptations. The distance of each of these sets will be set appropriate to the swimmers ability. Whilst swimming these swim sets the you should focus on the elements of your stroke that have been worked upon in the technique set.

* the Open Water technique session will incorporate a lot of the drills previously covered plus some additional ones specific to open water swimming
