Day 017 - Threshold Tolerance

WU: 600 yds. Main Set: 700 yds. CD: 300 yds. Total: 1600 yds.        Training via ActiveMail

Threshold tolerance at moderate-hard intensity. ( I know this may sound frightening, but it's not that bad)

Warm up:
*200 swim
*200 kick
*200 pull

Main Set:
*4x50
*3x75
*2x100
*1x150
** all freestyle, all base +15"**

Each swim in the main set has an interval of base pace +15 seconds. Swim this set at a moderate intensity. The goal of this workout is to swim at the same pace for each distance. For example if you swim the 50's with an average time of 1 minute try to hold that pace for the 75's, 100's and 150. This set is designed to help you develop a sense of pace while swimming.

Cool down:
*300 easy swim
