long, continuous swims

Do top swimmers, like Phelps, also do long, continuous swims at times or do they only do interval training? Does anyone here ever do long, continuous swims? I basically only do interval training and maybe add longer distances in my workout but I never do a complete workout as a continuous swim. Should one also include continuous swim sessions?

  • I hope Rich Abrahams comments on this,because of what he says here U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums - View Single Post - Rich Abrahams- Atlanta . Thanks for posting that, K.F. The 120/min HR Rich mentioned is consistent with what Tall Paul recommended when doing recovery swims: U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums - View Single Post - Sets/intervals (non-junk, non-sprint yardage) for sprinter
