This is one of our Senior Groups favorite lactate tolerance / sprint workouts. The intervals in this workout are stretched a little to allow a sort of “Active Recovery” and to push to muscle fatigue by swimming the main set as a sprint set followed by a short drill set while (hopefully) the muscles are fatigued to near lactate peak.
