Many years ago as a high school swimmer, the senior group on my club team (led by the head coach of the team) got into an interesting discussion about beneficial swim sets, and if you could only swim one more set for the rest of your swimming career, what would it be? Well, today’s main set is inspired by that conversation, and blends different indicators of speed and efficiency into a fairly simple set. Enjoy!
