I would be interested to see what others are doing (I am collecting workouts in case my coach quits again like she did 2 years ago I tried to swim on my own and I couldn't remember them)

Last week we did a 20 min continuous swim, counted our laps then figured out our 100 times. Now she has us all training off of those times.

Here is our workout for today: (I go for 50 min to an hour depending when I get there)

11-25-08

200 free

4x50 drill :
fingertip
Popov (I can't remember what TI calls it - 3 stroke then kick on side)
catchup
fist

200 free

200 kick

300 4x 25 free, 25 Back, 25 Breast continuous

3 x
400 by 100’s on 100 steady pace time + 10 sec rest
(this varies from person to person)
rest one full minute after each set of 400

ex: if your steady pace time is 1:35 for 100 you keep each 100 at 1:35 and rest 10 secs, for a total of 1:45
first 100 is on :00 next on :45, next on :30 next on :15 then rest 1:00 before starting the next 400 set

cool down

Doing the 20 min swim to time us was interesting.
It has removed some of the psychological games of "I can't do that many on that amount of time", I have always thought I needed at least 2 minutes for every hundred when doing set after set - I guess I was wrong
