Synopsis
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. Written by an elite-level triathlon and cycling coach, and a former U.S. National Team swimming coach, 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. Illustrated throughout, a bound set of waterproof workout cards for triathletes at all levels is also included.

January 02, 2007: Really great book if you are training for tri's and need to go to the pool with a structured workout to accomplish. I have throughly enjoyed using it for 2 years now. There are many workout options and each option has 2 different distances. The downside to the book? Well, maybe the only downside is that it doesn't really cater to 'new' swimmers who can't swim more than around 1500 yards a session. Although, the workouts are easy to trim down on the fly poolside.
