Workouts in a Binder: Swim Workouts for Triathletes

by Gale Bernhardt, Nick Hansen

Triathletes who hope to improve their swimming too often mix and match workouts or workout segments with no particular goal. The workouts in this set provide a handy, compact, inspiring -- and waterproof -- program. The book comprises seven workout categories: Anaerobic Endurance Speed, Anaerobic Endurance Form, Force Speed, Force Form, Muscular Endurance Speed, Muscular Endurance Form, and Muscular Endurance Distance. The variety of workouts included and their ease of use keep the process engaging and allow users to more easily achieve elusive swimming goals. Workouts in a Binder can easily be used in conjunction with triathlon training manuals such as Training Plans for Multisport Athletes or The Triathlete's Training Bible, or as stand-alone workouts for swimmers.

Still a great resource - back when I was self trained in the Summer of 2009.

Great book to take to the pool and flip open to a page. Takes a lot of the planning out of your swims, and guarantees a good workout if you follow it. Tons of different workouts so you'll never do the same one 2 days in a row if you don't want to.
