Tall Pauls Favorite Workouts and/or Sets

Getting to travel as much as we do we get to "taste" a lot of workouts from clubs all over the country...plus on occasion I come up with something to toss at the workouts I coach. For those lucky enough to swim with me Saturday (I'm coaching) here's the main set: SCY 800 negative split (get 400 split) @1:00 rest 6 x 100's @ 1:20 400IM 100 kick for time 400 negative split (faster than 2nd 400 of the 800, get 200 split) 1:00 rest 5 x 100's @ 1:15 200IM 100 kick for time (different stroke) 200 negative split (faster than 2nd 200 of 400) 4 x 100's @ 1:10 100IM 100 kick for time (different than first two)

  • Swam at ASU this morning, Coach Jonny on deck. This was a classic case of having a long middle distance set which i was not that keen on so we made changes. 10 minute choice warm-up main set was 9 x 325's which we "adapted" and did as follows: Swim 4 @ 4:20 Pull 2 (200 cruise, rest :10 125 build) @ 4:30 Swim 2 (broken :10 @ each 100 descending 1-3 then a 25 power kick) @ 5:00 #9 with fins and hans paddles = 4 x 50 cruise w/2 breaths per length, rest :10 followed by a fast 25 rest :25, after 4th round rest :15 then finish with 25 power kick.
