How to NOT suck at swimming - a comprehensive plan for anyone struggling with swimming
Prepare to transform you swim! We have included 50+ unique swim workouts categorized by speed, endurance, strength and race prep that will not only make you a more confident swimmer but a faster triathlon swimmer. Just follow the simple formula we have outlined and prepare to amaze yourself. With distances ranging from 1500-5200 yards there are swim sessions for everyone. These are the same workouts I have used to help hundreds of swimmers and triathletes take huge chunks off their swim times while coming out of the water fresh to tackle the rest of the race. Please email me at c26coach@gmail.com with any questions regarding plan outline, setting appropriate zones/paces, terminology, methodology, t-shirt size and/or personal coaching inquiries. Thank you for choosing Crushing Iron Coaching.

My underlying focus with all athletes is blending a positive life change with performance that extends beyond the finish line. I do not offer "traditional training plans", but a coach/athlete relationship focused on communication and a commitment to the process of getting better every day.
If this sounds like a something you are looking for please feel free to email me to discuss building a strong coach/athlete relationship or on how to approach one of my online training plans.
