It is extremely helpful, and is good about arranging drills so that they build on each other.   My workouts have become much more productive since I began using Coach Hines workouts and his workout schedules.

Some times I will go every other day for a couple of weeks, then other times I will go five days in a row and then miss three or four days.

When I do 4 or 5 days in a row, I find that my cardio is better on the fifth day, but my muscle endurance is not as good.

But if I miss two or three days then get back in it&amp;#39;s the opposite.  Usually if I miss two or three days, my best swim is the second day back on.  Seems to put my cardio back up without my muscles being too tired yet.

Wish I could be more consistent, but I have learned to go when I can because I might miss several days.  Although the most I have done is 6 days in a row.  I will skip the seventh day, even if I am able to go.  My muscles just need a break.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
