Workout Purpose
Your plan includes swim workouts designed to improve your aerobic, anaerobic and muscular endurance, as well as technique and speed skills.
To do this, we use 5 Training Zones to structure the workouts. In the first week of your plan, you will see a key swim fitness test to determine your threshold and training zones.
Following Workouts
You can follow your swim workouts using either Critical Swim Speed (CSS) or Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) as a measure of intensity. You will need to follow swim workouts from Phil's hand-typed description.
Enter Your Threshold and Zones
You will need to have entered your CSS into your TrainingPeaks settings to see the planned distance and duration.
Following Your Workout
You can export your pool swim workouts to your training device (such as Garmin, Coros, Suunto and Wahoo). Please check this article from TrainingPeaks to find out more and learn how to set your pool length.
You can set your usual pool length (in yards or meters) as a default in your TrainingPeaks settings, and change in each workout (if needed).
Alternatively, you can print your swim workouts and take them in a plastic sleeve to poolside (a small whiteboard also works).
