Favorite swim workout?
I don't do swim workouts, but enjoy being in the sea for fun on holidays. Transcript: "My favorites River. CAO, that's an easy round for me. I grew up in the Swiss mountains without see without like some. Not really good swimmer. I don't do really swim workouts, but on holidays, I really enjoy being the sea, have some fun, but then it's not a workout."

My favorite swim workout is the Rebecca Adlington set - 4 rounds of 50, 100, 150, 200, 250 (off a one-minute base) with a 300m easy swim in between each round. It's brutal, but it's also really satisfying.

My favorite swim workout is the Friday workout of the Noosa Squad, consisting of a warm up and a set of one easy, one hard, one easy to hard. I aim to get my average time down and finish with a loosen-down.

My favorite swim workout is a set of 40 times 100, alternating between 20 times 50 and 10 times 100 with one fast and one easy. After that, I repeat the same set twice.

I like to do a 2,000 meter warm-up followed by a threshold set of 20 x 100s on a 130s cycle for 1,600 meters.

I remember a really great swim session in the London Aquatics Centre during the 2012 Olympics, where me and my friend Louis did a 350m build with an emphasis on the finish. We ended up going 20:50, 24:32, 40:00 Long Course which was a PB for me. We also did 15-20 hours of hard grinds with fast times like 15:25, 24:35, 23:50, and 30:01 all out to get a good time on the last one.
