I almost drowned on Oklahoma while slipping on a rock. My uncle luckily saved me. Im more scared of water now…
Example of a main set for a speed work day I did recently.
5 rounds of 6x25m on 30 at 200 pace… after each set of 6, 50 easy on 1:30. I tracked it with my Phlex and averaged 15.2 on the 25s.
Oh and that was butterfly ��.
I like how you explains things. It is clear and easy to understand. Nice job.
How to get better with fins??? 1000m swim time needs to be below 18 minutes, but straight flutter kick no freestyle
Great. Is there something I can watch that’s between getting to know what water is and competitive freestyle swimming…?
I love that catch up drill. If you don’t have a PVC pipe on-hand, you can also cut up a foam pool noodle and use that:)
Hey there, i have a question. In speed session 16x25m with 4th fast and 15 sec recovery means: swim 100m(last 25m fast) and then wait 15 sec and do 4 it for four times? Am i wrong?
What’s an “easy pull”?! Sorry if I missed that…..all this Tri swimmer jargon is a bit lost on me.
Here I haven’t been exercising for years and just looking for a “Beginner workout” and I get a triathlon workout. Thanks Youtube.
Any advice for a struggling beginner? I try, but I panic so much in the water that I keep almost drowning in 3ft of water. 3ft!! It’s ridiculous and my friend makes so much fun of me…. I really want to get better at swimming.
this was in my recommendation and i think it’s a sign to start swimming
Awesome��������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������
@Globaltriathlonnetwork Any tips on remembering how many lengths I’ve completed as I swim??��
GTN sets an even higher standard! My eyes usually glaze over when someone suggests swim sets, but now I understand what and why, except I need to go back for screenshots. Thanks!
I know swim but I have panic attacks if I swim I feel like I’m sinking any tips please thank you
When you have to learn how to swim by urself bc ur school is making you swim and they won’t teach you ��
The only drill here that is worth anything is the “Fist Drill”. It is beneficial for the reasons stated. ALL the other drills are worthless or even harmful to an efficient stroke because they promote over gliding. As stated, water is 800 times more dense than air. So if there is ANY pause in your stroke, you will come to an abrupt stop. Distance per stroke is ONLY important when coupled with an appropriate stroke rate and should never be isolated.
Thanks for remembering us. Other topics: breathing, stroke mechanics, good cross training for swimmers to make them better, proper kick, how to avoid burnout, etc. My biggest hurdle as a novice has been breathing properly and relaxing, as having endurance. I’m good for about 4-6 laps and have to stop. Goal is to swim not necessarily fast, but for a longer duration.
why I’m watching this at 1 AM on a cold December night ����♀️
Who else is watching this because your going into highschool next year
Why am I even here? Because of Covid, the pool where I live is closed, and it’s god damn 2:32 in the morning.
Hey I really like this overview! This a great starter for all.
I’m here after almost drowning in a reservoir 26m deep �� Horrific first experience with water.
I’d usually have a session planned but some days I get extremely demoralized when I can’t complete the sets/keep up with the time.
What would you recommend?
Also, I think it’d be nice to talk about training fatigue, how to recognize them and how to deal with them:)
Thanks and keep up the amazing work!!
Hi I’m learning to swim for the first time, since I’d like to join the navy. I’d just like to ask, is opening your eyes in chlorinated water bad?
Thanks for the high quality videos from you guys, I have learned a lot and you are a great team:)
I have been swimming freestyle frequently for a couple of years, and get compliments about my technique. Until now, my sets have always been very technique-focused always with some balance and rotation drills. However, my endurance is really, really, really bad. I mostly able to only swim 50s with breaks. I usually breathe every two to the right, but lately have been trying to use every three more, also trying to learn tumble turns. Learning this seems not very compatible with swimming more lengths though, especially since breathing to my left is more complicated due to less exhaling and rotation and the tumble turn attempts right now easily make me lack oxygen.
I got a recommendation to try swimming 100s at around 2:00 pace, with 30s breaks inbetween. Right now this seems totally impossibly, although I can swim a 25 at 30s without trouble. I also believe that I should really focus on the endurance part, and possibly put the tumble turns and bilateral breathing aside, or maybe making it its own part of a set. Not sure on how to incorporate this.
I feel a bit lost on how to structure a set, to be honest. Would you recommend using fins to string together more lengths, or would this be doing myself more bad?
I was gonna join planet fitness since its cheap but i think ill choose the gym that has a Olympic swimming pool

you have great skill of giving 2 mins worth of information in 10 mins…
This guy explains it better than the other videos i’ve watched about learning how to swim. Keep it up!
I’m sure these are good reps but as someone new to the sport these are hardly beginner sets. This type of expectation just puts people off who are new to Tri so please include something more realistic for real beginners.
I love one hand drill Wich is almost like catch-up drill but we have to continue with one hand till the end and to switch hand for the next lap
Mmh not a lot of butterfly/backstroke/breaststroke in there, I like mixing things with those other swim styles, during the warmup or between sets
Is it OK to add a speed set to the end of any of the other workouts?
Great video as always. Looking forward to changing my usual training with these.
It’s better to learn it during childhood? Well there goes my enthusiasm ����♂️
I’m gonna start taking swimming lessons at my school tomorrow! I’m watching to prepare, I want to become a competitive swimmer cause i think it’s one of the coolest sports!
Great swim sets. You can also find more workouts on places like SwimSwam.com or I’ve actually found swim sets on Pinterest.com ��
Isn’t that a rehash of an earlier video? Hmm! Drunk on too much eggnog and pushed the repeat button?
How long should the PVC pipe be for age group kids? Thank you:)

As always… really interesting…
Grazie ragazzi
Swiss swimmer����
Great workout ideas! Just to clarify: for the speed session, are you taking the 30/25/20/15s recovery after every 25m, or at the end of each block of 25ms that you prescribe? E.g. for the first set, do I take 30 seconds rest after each 25 meters, or at the end of the 16 x 25m?
How do I breath? Not just swimming or even in training, but in general day to day life.
So for each swimming sesh how many minutes to roughly calculate?
Another Aerobic main set example500-400-300-200-100 for a 1500m set. Or 400-300-200-100 for 1000m.
diving into the pool with my phone and occasionaly checking the video if I am doing it right.. lol
I learnt swimming on my own (my style)and swim few times by removing water from center towards sides by both hands with no leg movement. Still I moved. I know it’s not the correct way but I did move. But I feel scared getting my head inside water as I fear water will enter my nose and ears. Also I don’t know how to breath during swimming.
Guys give me your suggestions
For a beginner how many aerobic sessions per week, and is the idea to start with the shorter sets then move up to the 500m sets? Great vid as always Thanks.
Now admittedly I don’t watch every GTN eps but have you ever addressed the long trunk vs speedo issue? I’ve noticed Mark uses both….why? What exactly are the advantages and disadvantages of each?
i cant even see clearly without my glasses and u expect me to not wear goggles in water?! hahahaha i cant see shitt
Mark please make a list of essential swimming paraphernalia for beginners.
Hi All, can anybody let me know as beginner upto what depth should I be in the pool?? As I am 5 ft heighted..Also I became frightened when water crosses above my shoulder in standing position.
I’ll be doing my first sprint distance in may and my first Olympic triathlon in June. I’m fairly confident in my running and cycling capabilities, but I’ve only learned how to swim freestyle this summer. I can almost swim the distance, but my pace really is lacking. I’m currently doing 3min/100m. Keep in mind, I’ve never done a speed session in my life. Should is start doing these now? Or should I wait a bit longer, focus on my technique and start doing these speed sessions closer to the race.
Also, happy New Year everyone!
Thanks for this video! Besides knowing what to do? How about knowing how to plan interval swims and how to train with a pace clock? I’ve encountered workouts with send-off times with the fastest, mid, and slowest times like 1:15/ 1:20/ 2:00. How are those determined and which to use?
I’d like to add a recovery session into the mix. Really helpful post a long bike/run session.
When I open my eyes underwater It starts to burn and it’s so painful ��
The incorrect technique still looks good compared to mine trying to do the correct way. ����♀️
How come the speed workout is the highest in terms of volume, at 3000m in total?
Thanks for these tips. What do you mean by pulls? Is that isolated arm work?
The only pool I have access to is the YMCA pool but I don’t wanna hog the lanes when I don’t know how to swim. When they remove the lanes for open pool there is usually 10 people there but i might look weird going alone:/
Always wondered what are those yellow and blue things on your right? Are those kayaks? Why are there kayaks in a pool?
Swimming is amazing for the mind, body, and soul! Happy Swimming! ��
