Have done this session many times. A real classic. The rest periods in the first set feel totally unnecessary … then in the final 100s you are begging for a few extra seconds. Haha. It would be great to swim this in a group… I dream of the day I’m at CSS pace of 01:26!!!
Fantastic info and so easily explained. I have watched your content and have to say it's definitely one of the best on you tube. Thanks for the tips, tricks and keep up the amazing work
Easily my favourite session. It's amazing (and a bit worrying!) how much my effort has to ramp up to maintain the same pace over 2000m or so. The first 100s are a stroll, the end of the 400 gets a bit frantic!
This is such a fabulous set but I always always struggle with the 400m at the end and could probably count on one hand the number of times I have managed to hold my pace for the whole 400m.
Tried this session for the first time this morning...that big bear has teeth, just like you said! 🐻 Loved it though. Solo the motivation was more tricky, need my swim buddy back!

That is so true! Experiment with shorter rests too in the 100s - that can make it spicy!!

Glad you love it Glen!
I love this Paul! You are one of the best swim coaches I've seen mate. Keep up the amazing work.
Thanks, will do!
Such a great session. The tempo trainer is easily the best bit of kit I own, simple but effective
Agreed - 100%!

Brilliant! Well done!!
One of my favs. When I’m not feeling great I add pull gear on for the last 400. Sort of cheating.
Better than NOT doing it. Well done!
I have a love/hate relationship with this session!
I think we all do! That's why it's sooooo good!
