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.
