Saturday Swim Session – Sutto’s Ironman RPG D

Using a pull buoy can be like a double-edged sword; overreliance on it can make swimmers lazy, impacting their balance in the water and impacting their ability to kick. However, inclusion in a training plan occasionally can be of benefit. Rehearsal of your Ironman Race Pace or as Brett Sutton calls Race Pace Groove (RPG) is essential for a solid Ironman Swim and allows you to gauge your progress. This session is good for triathletes, especially those preparing for an Ironman, as well as open-water swimmers.

Saturday Swim Session: Marc Evans’ Recreational Ironman Athlete Workout #5

During an open-water swim whether it’s in an Ironman, triathlon or just a swim (without the bike and run following), you are likely to need to utilise different paces (particularly near the start and end of the swim leg). This session has a range of different distance reps, with different Rest Intervals (RI) to develop different speed/stamina related fitness goals. This is a great session for triathletes and open water swimmers to do to build their sustained speed.

Saturday Swim Session: Marc Evans’ Recreational Ironman Athlete Workout #8

Spending time focusing on your technique and enhancing specific aspects of your stroke will allow you to swim faster for the same energy expenditure, or swim at your normal pace for less energy expenditure. This will allow you to finish the swim fresher for the remaining legs of the triathlon. This is a great session for triathletes and open water swimmers to do to build their sustained speed.
