I’m planning on doing a first triathlon in the fall and up starting to do some swimming now. I’m looking for some good swim workouts to do. I was on a competitive swim team for about 10 years when I was younger so I am a decent swimmer, just haven’t been swimming for quite some time and do not have stamina built up yet. Thanks!
Look up the guppy and tarpon workouts in this forum.
You can check out the fishies threads for some workout ideas too-all different distances in there 1500-6000+ yds/meters per workout. I think this month’s is called november swim challenge, and last month’s was october fish report. You can use the search function to find them!
Also, google Sara McLarty and Jenny Leiser. Both are great swimmers and post workouts on their websites.

Tons of resources out there.
theres the old standby “swimming workouts in a binder” or something like that, i forget the exact title.
if you are a member of US Masters Swimming, they have workouts on their website
our masters team has a handful of workouts posted from the summer. http://www.halifaxmastersswimclub.ca/practices I’m sure other clubs do the same. Ours are divided into “fit tech”, middle distance, and endurance. practices are typically 1500-2000m for fit tech, 2000-2500 for middle, and 2500 - 3000 for the endurance group.
Swim Speed Workouts by Sheila Taormina. You get 3-4 months of workouts with 3 workouts a week. Two are approx 2,000y/m one is around 3000-4000y/m each week. Pretty cheap too.
