krl747 Posted October 22, 2012 Share I'm off to do my first swim in 20 min Must say after a lay off since this years 70.3 I'm excited to get fit again My first session saw me do 50m before nearly drowning!!!

sluiper Posted October 22, 2012 Share I just did my first 2.2km swim How often you guys swimming each week I'm a noob to triathlon, so my training schedule doesn't mean much, but I try to do at least 3 sessions a week. My normal session would be 8x500m at about 9 minutes per 500m with 1 minute rest in between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mental arithmetic...mmm....8x500m is 4000m @ mmm...1m 48s per 100m (used the calc for that one) Are you Chad le Clos or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My normal session would be 8x500m at about 9 minutes per 500m with 1 minute rest in between.Yeah thats hectic Just a suggestion why don't you maybe include some short stuff in your swim training instead of doing all those 500's. For example do 10 x 100's leaving on 2 min. It will increase the lung capacity as well. Then when that becomes to easy then leave on 1min 50 seconds.
