Re: Offseason Pool Workout Distance [CubLou10]
Ultra short race pace training.

I always explain that it's like weigtt training for swimming.

Pick a pace that you can do about 12 of in a row. Maybe 50s for a 50 or 1:45 for a 100. I'm just making up numbers. It depends on what you can do today.

Do a warmup. Then do as many reps at the pace as you can do without slowing down. As soon as you can't hold the pace, rest and Sit one out. Then start again. Do as many more as you can at the same pace. Again when you cant hold the pace, stop and rest. After the third failure you are done for the day. Do a short cool down, and go home.

When you can do 20+ in a row without failing increase your goal pace by 2s or so for the next session.
