Plan Description
12 week swim plan perfect for athletes looking to be able to swim 4km in a session or 3.8km swim comfortably and/or quickly.
Each session in this plan gives a range of set lengths. eg. 3-6 x 100m gives you the option of completing 3 x 100m if you are a developing swimmer and 6 x 100 if you are a fit/fast swimmer. If you are a less developed swimmer you do the minimum option. Elite swimmers complete the longer option. The sessions are based on your own pace and developing your own speed and endurance.
Training peaks shows the maximum time and distance, please disregard this if you are a developing swimmer as there are easier options for you!
The plan includes key testing and how to use the results from the testing in your sessions going forward.
This plan includes 5-6 pool sessions a fortnight with one open water swim a month (with pool alternative). It includes a race day and taper.
