Swimming Set of the Week - June 18, 2010

Posted by Barbara Hummel on Jun 18, 2010 12:51AM (2,661 views)

This week's set can be used as an aerobic recovery set. For a more aggressive workout, you can pick one of the tracks (either the pulls or the IMs) and push those swims.

Paddles are optional on the pulls.
B+1 breathing means that you use a pattern that gives you a little less air than normal. E.g., if you normally breathe every 3, you should breathe every 4 when it says "B+1."

2400 yards/meters

1 X 500 pull with B+1 breathing pattern

1 X 400 IM with fins (25 kick/50 drill/25 swim in each stroke) Use dolphin kick for breaststroke.

1 X 400 pull, with B+1 breathing pattern

1 X 300 IM w/ fins (25 kick/25 drill/25 swim in each stroke)

1 X 300 pull, breathe every 3...every 2 (twice to the right, then twice to the left)

1 X 200 IM w/ fins (25 drill/25 swim in each stroke)

1 X 200 pull, breathe every 3 on first 50, then breathe as much as you want

1 X 100 IM w/ fins (all swim)

bilateral breathing, breath control, swim training

GW	Responded Jul 03, 2010 02:00PM Amin, 25K,25D,25S means for each stroke you do 25m (or yds), kick, followed by 25 Drill then 25 swim full stroke (4 x 75 = 300m for that part of the set) to make the 300 IM. Barbara has stated in the workout B+1 means, if you normally breathe every 3 then for this part of the set breathe every 4, so moving towards hypoxic type training because you have less opportunity to take on air. Hope that helps
