      @@GwenJorgensen It's the right mix of relatable (peeking at the clock, exchanging notes with the coach, not an epic workout but work that you gotta do) & a little inside baseball w/o giving the farm away. Lots of insight into pro tri life but not an interview (nothing wrong with an interview, love them)...instead just natural conversation even though there is somebody there sticking a camera in your faces.

    Good job Gwen. Looking at that underwater it looks like there is limited reach and glide before the start of your catch. Your arm is dropping straight away. You can see the difference with the side by side with Taylor. I'm not sure if this is a conscious technique decision? Anyway, regards arm chair, UA-cam expert (0 Olympic medals)

    It's probably known (swimmers or coaches) can have a dig at triathletes for their stroke or turns but what about set design? This is where it gets interesting and I have a feeling less then 1% are really looking into this enough (everyone not just triathletes). 'Does it really matter if you're a couple seconds slower and in 4 days you wouldn't have lost any fitness?' You said it yourself. Think about this further and question if the clock matters that much? 15x 200s - decending, assending, on xxx time, or xxx time, or xxx time. I could modify this set so much.
    6x200s free, last 200 don't stop into 400 IM (or 2x 200m IMs) then, 6x200s free - start first one without stopping after IM.
    3x200 free, 400m 50back alt 50fly (or 25back alt 25fly), x3 200m free.
    2x100 fly, 2x200 free (do this 3 times).
    200m back, 400IM, 200m back, then 4x100 free, 4x100 reverse IM, 4x100 free.
    Rather then using the clock recover with backstoke, double arm backstroke, double arm backstroke with brest kick.
    One arm butterfly is another good one. Warm up 800m 50m alt left/right arm. Then don't stop - into 2x400 of 100m back/free.
    Don't stop the wall so often unless drinking - backstoke, backstroke, backstroke.
    Finis snorkel like your buddy had. 200m free, alt 200m kick (x4) or done as 100s. No one should be kicking without a snorkel. Terrible for the neck the ideal freestyle position. 100% freestyle will improve with a finis snorkel. Get a full sized adult kickboard too. One that is shaped more dimond like or spear headed. It supports weight better.
    After 3 or 4km of this you are ready to hit the paddles/finns and lastly pull. I would work hard with finns. They are really good for turns and pushing off walls. I find them good for sprint work rather then anaerobic. Also for dolphin kick (front and back).
    300m - 100m free (sprint), 100m back (sort of recover), 50m fly, 50m dolphin kick on back (anaerobic) do this a few times after you've done main set.
    One word on warmup - back strokes at start, then towards the end of the warm up incorporate front strokes.
    I'm a fan of brest stroke but it doesn't work like the other 3 and I just put it in where I can, when I've done too much backstroke.
    Hope this helps. I'm a fan and remember you from following triathlon back around 2010. I wouldn't have ever remembered but recently popped up in my feed since I started doing and following the fitness scene again.

      clock doesn't matter - i did a video last year all about this. The clock for me is more about entertainment than anything else. but often in my sessions i am not giving a time send off. just whatever i need to accomplish the goals of the set
