Yeah im not technically a beginner (was varsity swim in high school) and after time away this seems daunting even to me who is still a pretty strong swimmer getting back in the swing. An hour (as of my first session back) gets me about 1200. I can't imagine a true beginner thinking this is an easy peasy set.
Just as an advice: why don’t you add swimming drills recommendations for each Set?. Because without any drills or techniques it’s just numbers put on a video. Each time I look for swimming plans I find the same numbers videos and no plan of drills/techniques recommended within the plan. Just my opinion.
@@frostiesr345 maybe drill is like a full effort workout..so 25m swimming with your maximum speed (?) Idk im a beginner as well..i still cant properly control my breathing...i lost my breath most of the time 😢😢
No- a drill is like an exercise. A specific skill that you are working on. I’m also a beginner but was also confused watching this video. I came for the drills lol. The good news is that this video can help structure your swim sessions.
@@gracefuizzotto4072 I understand that my comment says “wtf is a drill” but I know what a drill is. I came to this video to find out drills to do lol. I think that’s what we’re all saying
Could u please do a video explaining how to do each of these sessions, as in how one should feel while performing each session and how hard we should be going as i really dont understand how to be doing these sessions
When someone gives you a workout and writes, for example, 100 drill, basically what that means is to choose a drill to do. There are so many different drills, but they all typically work on your technique. One drill that I typically choose is catch up, either 3/4 catch up, or what I call superman catchup. basically all you do for this drill, its freestyle btw, is instead of moving your arms right after another, you wait for one arm to get back into the water by your head, or almost to your head, before you move your other arm. And all that swim means is freestyle, so if someone writes 100 swim, usually it just means to do 100 freestyle
These workouts are also good for seniors like myself (I'm 70). Having been out of the pool for almost a year because of COVID-19, I'll be starting all over again with more body weight and arthritis in the elbows. It'll be frustrating since I'd been swimming masters since I left college.
This video isn't too helpful, as a beginner I don't really understand all the technical words and it does get a bit overwhelming, not that I feel I can't do the workout, I just can't remember all of that
These drills look about right for me. Can you suggest how i might access them? I mean are they written out anywhere? Of course, i can stop the video and write it out mysel f but i was just wondering if it has been done somewhere and i am just missing it. Thanks
Are you saying the main set should be done a total of two times or three times through? Also, what strokes should we do during the main set? Just the crawl or can we mix in other strokes too?
My dream is to be able to go workout in a indoor pool. They are all closed for now but they are still to far away for me. The lake I live on is frozen but when it opens I will try and gauge the distance for the workout you prescribed. Right now I'm more focused on putting in the distance. structure will be next.
what do you think about throwing in no breathers?Maybe 4- 8 reps x 25 yards/meters, with big fins at the bottom of the pool or surface swimming with just enough rest in between reps?Thanks
How does one even get better at swimming there 50m lap. I’m almost out of breath every-time I finish mine and that’s after I watched your “tired after 50m” video.
I had a meet today and I was swimming the 200 free, and, like what seems to be every time I go off the blocks all of the sudden, my goggles came down. I didn't want to swim the entire 200 with my goggles down, so I decided to fix them, even though it meant /i would get a DQ. For my second race I was swimming the 100, and I thankfully decided to dive off the side so it wouldn't happen again, and my time was literally .2 of a second away from making the qualifying times for the junior olympics, and if I was able to go off the blocks with my goggles on, i would've made the time. So, I really need some tips on how to keep my goggles on. Sorry this is so long, but does anyone have any tips for me?
@@heatherfell_oly First of all, I think its really cool that you responded to my comment, and second, my last meet of the season is coming up so i'll be binging some videos to try and do the best I can.
Hi there! How new are you to swimming? We have this series about learning to swim, with some great tips involved 👉 ruclips.net/video/e2ZgN5gsXQU/видео.html
I am confused as to how the 1st main makes sense. 8×50 as 25+25+100 adds up to a total of 150 (or 3×50) how does that add up to 8×50? Its been a while since I left swim team but im pretty sure that just doesn't make sense unless its not meant to be a split, its supposed to be a full 50 instead of 25?
I think it's meant to read as 8 sets of: 25m drill + 25m swim (50m total), then 100m easy as the recovery. So the 8x50 is only referring to the 'working' part of each set.
What is your go-to swim workout?
Not to drown workout.
@@robinhood5529 💀💀💀💀
I need a beginners workout program for THIS program!
Welcome to the "beginners" swim session...
Now swim 2km lol
Lmao I know huh. I'm barely repping 50m laps.
@@harvey2539 25m 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
i know.. these vids are stupid
As someone who is trying to get in shape and hasn’t worked out in some time, this doesn’t seem very “beginner” friendly 😅

I'm a total beginner. What do you mean by drill and easy?
Just as an advice: why don’t you add swimming drills recommendations for each Set?.
Because without any drills or techniques it’s just numbers put on a video.

Way to complicated for beginners
Right? Wtf is 25m drill? I thought you were suppose to tell me lol
Yeah

Hi. Can you tell me where I can find the descriptions and details of the terminology of the different drills? Like, what exactly do they mean?
I don't understand these "beginner" workouts. You want me to swim a total of 1900 meters when I can barely swim?
Dumb Aussie
😂 you're right. I entered the link for my children but then noticed that's almost for pros))
Could u please do a video explaining how to do each of these sessions, as in how one should feel while performing each session and how hard we should be going as i really dont understand how to be doing these sessions

Could u guys please tell what drill and swim means???
You guys are nuts😂 2k for a beginners trainig???

aw man, i miss swimming :(
This is for beginners? I mean I can swim a bit of freestyle but not continous 100s of meters. Is there anything for real beginners?
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Looking forward to the GTN video of "how to get back into swimming after lockdown series" make it happen please :)
What beginner can do a 300 meter as a warm-up?
These drills look about right for me. Can you suggest how i might access them? I mean are they written out anywhere? Of course, i can stop the video and write it out mysel f but i was just wondering if it has been done somewhere and i am just missing it. Thanks
How are you doing the timer? I dont have prescription goggles, so I can't see the second hand on the giant swim clock. I coukd when I was younger.
Anyone got any links or hints for swim spa training sessions?
Are you saying the main set should be done a total of two times or three times through? Also, what strokes should we do during the main set? Just the crawl or can we mix in other strokes too?

1900 meters for beginners? 😮
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much. :)
what do you think about throwing in no breathers?Maybe 4- 8 reps x 25 yards/meters, with big fins at the bottom of the pool or surface swimming with just enough rest in between reps?Thanks
So, is 25metres of "swim", meaning, going as fast as possible?
This isn't very beginner friendly 😅 explaining the lingo next time would be good
How does one even get better at swimming there 50m lap. I’m almost out of breath every-time I finish mine and that’s after I watched your “tired after 50m” video.
what the heck is ”drill” and ”easy”
1900 mtrs for a beginner seems like a lot, if you only have an hour or so to swim
1900 mewters is a beginner workout? I'm screwed.
LMAO but, as a beginner, I can't swim more than 50m without having to rest! If I could "warm up" doing 300, I woulndn't even be watching this video.

This is not for "beginners" lol
U need a new definition of "beginner"...
For beginners ?wtf are you smoking
“for beginners”…. Should be removed from this title. This is intermediate.
