Fore!

If you love golf, then you’ll probably hate this set. “Fore” isn’t always the best thing to hear, unless you’re the one with the club in your hand... Smashed windshields aside, this is a nice easy set that you can choose to do multiple times depending on where you’re at!

Backstroke

You’d never catch me swimming backstroke, but hey - that’s why I’m a coach! Just don’t ask me to do a backstroke start...that normally ends with a very painful concussion...

Breaststroke

Some might call it a cheat code using the same sets with different strokes, I say shhhh! Having an easy set that you will remember off the top of your head is good - think that 5 star resort you find yourself in on holidays...you never know when a lap pool awaits.

Butterfly

If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I LOVE butterfly. It’s an excellent source of fitness, and for beginners, it’s something you can “muscle” through.

Sprint Set

Sprint Sets will always come up, but they have the benefit of being shorter. If boredom for an hour isn’t your thing, get comfortable being uncomfortable with this quick and explosive set!

100s

There will come a point where you will be thankful you’re only doing 100s, but I doubt that’d be what you’re feeling now. Just know that because all of these are on rest intervals, it doesn’t matter how quickly or slowly you get through these 100s, you’ll always get some amount of rest at the end.
