Why not... I'll start with this and see how well it's received.
Words of warning -
All workouts are LCM at high altitude (5600 ft). If you think the intervals are too easy, you should try them up here before you say that.
I may not be entirely consistent with my posting of these. I have a day job and family that keep me quite busy. It may make more sense for me to post a week at a time. Not sure if I can get far enough ahead of the train to do them in advance, or have to do them
Most of the training is geared towards being able to RACE 100's & 200's. 50's & 400's occasionally. This is *NOT* a high yardage program. Quality first!
There are usually 2 workout groups - 1:20-1:25 and 1:40-1:45. These are per 100 LCM Threshold/EN2 speed for a 30ish minute set and the times are how fast you are swimming, not what you are leaving on. I try to scale the slower workout from the faster one.
These are meant to be done in 1 hour. That's all the time we have!
Some pieces of this might lean towards USRPT at times. This is intentional and desired.
I will post the workouts as a PDF and provide any needed additional info on the original post.
Constructive feedback is always welcome and appreciated!!
First workout was a "killa" and geared towards 400 race-pace work.

FAST FRIDAY!! Most all of this year's FAST FRIDAY practices will be in this same format and the group has agreed that they want to stick with the 3 x 100's & 3 x 50's format rather than increasing the number of 100's and decreasing the 50's (i.e. 4 X 100's & 2 X 50's, etc.) each week. This was done last year, though many more in the group were focused on big meets in August in 2018. That is not the case so much this year and this year's regulars agreed that 3/3 was enough pain & suffering :D
We usually have 4-5 lanes doing this from the blocks and keep 1-2 lanes open for warm down and/or those that want to do something else of their own choosing.
I have attached a practice with this format and will likely just re-post it each Friday, assuming this will be the same each week.
