Slide 1: 

Your Triathlon Swim Workouts Speed, Endurance and Technique

Slide 2: 

When you put together your triathlon swim workouts, you should consider the length of your upcoming race. You can modify your workout to that distance so you will be more focused on what you must do to prepare instead of random workouts. Triathletes Swim Training

Slide 3: 

What must be worked on are speed, technique and being able to swim at a sustained speed for distance. If your swimming technique appears to be working for you, don’t spend too much time on that. If you have good endurance but lack speed, then focus a more on doing sprints.

Slide 4: 

If you have been racing for a while, are you able to maintain a steady swim pace to the end or do you find yourself slowing down? If you are slowing down, is it because you started out too fast or is it lack of endurance? Work on increasing your endurance level so you can carry a steady pace all the way too the end and have more energy when you start out on your bike.

Slide 5: 

Increasing your swimming efficiency plays a big part also. Improving your swimming efficiency will help you expend less energy to get from point A to Point B. If you use less arm strokes to cover a known distance then you should be conserving some energy.

Slide 6:
