GoSwim GoldFun IM Practice
5 commentsNot too tough, but a fun IM practice that allows you to focus on proper technique with lots of rest.
Swim Set of the Week - June 12, 2009
This set is in honor of Scott May, a Masters swimmer on the team that I coach. He's got a Big Birthday coming up and is doing this challenge set tomorrow.
Swimming with the Masters this morning
My friends (ABC, The Annapolis Breakfast Club) who swim in the same pool each morning have a standard Friday morning practice. Depending on how you approach it, it can either be easy or hard.
75 IM Set
While the distance and/or sendoffs aren't very tough, you can make this practice a winner by really working your turns, streamlines, and pick a very important aspect of your freestyle to work on through the entire set.

This IM set asks you to come up with drills "on the fly."
Swimming Set of the Week - February 3, 2009
This set of 225 IMs will help you focus on how fast you FEEL rather than on how fast the clock says you're going.
Swimming Set of the Week - January 20, 2009
Here's a 2000-yard IM set that's heavy on freestyle, but gives you plenty of opportunities to swim fast on the stroke portions.
Swimming Set of the Week - November 25, 2008
Two IM sets. One from Glenn, one from Barbara. Go get 'em.
Test Set for 100 Race
Starting to gear up for a championship meet in mid December. The 8 X 75 breast at a controlled descend was the main set.
Swimming Set of the Week - November 11, 2008
Take your pick of these two sets that make use of the number "11" in honor of US Veterans and in honor of Armistice Day...the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.
Swimming Set of the Week - October 28, 2008
Here's a set of 10 X 200 IM that's taxing but not crushing, because it combines fins, drills, straight swimming, shifting sendoffs, and some broken swims. If you want more yardage, do the set, then 100 easy recovery, then repeat the set.
