We did this workout yesterday and it is a tough and challenging one. The warm-up was long because we had been out of training for a day and it takes a while to get your body started again.

Workout from the Fighting Manatee Masters Swim Team in the Florida Keys. This was a more challenging morning for the Manatees as there were quite a few things to remember and pay attention to during the main set.

The Main Series in this workout should be viewed in two parts. First, I set up the Main Series, which is geared toward cycling through a set of 150s and 75s freestyle. I’d like the 150s to be fast, and the 75s to be faster. Next, I set up the “Pre-Set”. In the case of today’s workout our preset was set up to mimic the main series.

Following up on a rather hard Monday afternoon practice with a kick focused Tuesday afternoon. I believe most of your kicking should be done fast, so this was the perfect day for us to work our legs.

As we approach Short Course Nationals, held in early November, the workouts for my two groups start to look quite a bit different. Most Elite squad members will have to “double peak” with Nationals and Regionals scheduled four weeks later.
Feb 17, 2011 – Florida Keys Swim Club
This was Mhyria’s only swim for the day and as she was going to work on her upper body strength in the gym in the afternoon therefore Coach Olsen wanted the session to contain some kind of kicking.

Friday morning workout from the Fighting Manatee Masters Swim Team in the Florida Keys. Although this wasn’t a kick focused session, there was a good amount of kicking with the 50’s in the main set.
Oct 16, 2012 – Blue Wave Swim Team
This Tuesday afternoon workout was designed to target Lactate Tolerance and keep our athletes aware of the feeling at the end of a race. I always look at our workout as a whole and think “every set is a main set”, to where each element builds up and is intertwined somehow.

We are gearing up for the Florida State High School Championships coming up in early November. This workout gave our athletes an opportunity to swim with great stroke.
Oct 2, 2012 – Vevey Natation
This Tuesday afternoon both groups basically did the same workout – a kick focused main set with short freestyle pace swims with descending intervals.
