Day 013 - Middle distance swim plus bike with climbs

Swim (level 3) + bike (level 2-3)        Training via ActiveMail

SWIM: MIDDLE DISTANCE FREESTYLE: L3.



Warmup:

400 easy.

5 x 200 free, always getting 30" rest after each effort.



Try to get faster on each 200 -- start comfortable and finish fast.



5 x 150 pull/kick with 30" recovery after each one. Use pull buoys with no paddles.



Start with 125 pull + 25 kick; add a 25 of kick each repeat. 4 x 25 - underwater kicks with 30" rest.



BIKE: 60' warmup at L2, then 45'-75' climb at L3.



Find a long hill to climb. This increases your leg and hip strength. Your breathing should be controlled.
