O2 Swimming

MONDAY Swim Workout.... *****. A few have asked about the addition of more stroke work, shorter sets and faster times... I started PERIODIZING my year about 7-8 years ago so we don't get stale. When the swimmers are "in season", so am I, hence the look of the workouts more recently... If you are an adult or a tri kid = as always, use these as a guideline or bounce me with questions... Keep swimmin.

Warm up: 300 free
300 drill/swim
