Words from Coach Mark on Getting the Most Out of Your training

 

To get the most out of your workouts and develop your training to a higher level – remember these things:

 

1.  Pay attention to your body, and don’t leave the pool until your breathing and heart rates are back to the normal range and you feel loose and relaxed.

 

2.  Your level of effort and corresponding breathing and heart rates should change gradually, rather than suddenly.  Take more rest if you need it.  After a strong effort, there is often times a tendency towards an inactive recovery. You will need a good recovery set.

 

3.  Slow-to-moderate swimming will produce more favorable results during a recovery swim - rather than prolonging conversations in the pool.

 

Your goal should be “Aiming for Efficient Swimming”

 

Whether your goal is cardiovascular fitness or increased distance in a specific time we all should strive for efficiency in the water.  Periodically during a workout, you should count the number of strokes you take per length.

 

If you can hold that number during a distance set or even reduce the number per length you will become more efficient and achieve greater speed and increased distance.

 

The more you can do this you will be able to swim farther and faster while expending no more energy than before!
