Swim Workouts for Triathletes: Practical Workouts to Build Speed, Strength, and Endurance

Most triathletes are quick to admit their weakest sport is swimming. This waterproof book of 75 swim workouts provides the structure and variety triathletes need to develop real speed in the water. Each workout is designed around a specific goal—endurance, speed, form, muscular endurance, or anaerobic endurance—making it easy to prepare for events of difference distances or improve all around swimming skill.

This new edition includes illustrated drills, 30-minute workouts for those with limited time, and more tests to measure progress. Four additional training plans will allow triathletes to better address their weaknesses, and prepare for any race distance.

With a practical, compact design that travels well from gym bag to pool deck, this is the workout book that triathletes have come to know and love. Put to use, this book helps triathletes shave off much needed seconds and find better economy in the water, which leads to better performances on the bike and run.
