Daily Dryland Swimming Workouts #28 – More Toilet Paper

For the past few months, SwimSwam has been posting a daily swimming workout to help inspire swim coaches around the world who are looking for new ideas to try with their swimmers. Since most of the world’s pools are currently closed for business, we wanted to give swimmers and coaches an alternative set of dryland workouts to use to stay fit during the quarantine. These workouts will be designed to be done around the house. Some will use basic equipment, like medicine balls or stretch cords, while others will be all body-weight exercises.

These workouts are provided for informational purposes only.

It’s the Weekend – Time for Some Fun

It’s Saturday (you may have forgotten). And the weekends used to be for fun. So let’s have some with Berzerker Toilet Paper Workout #2. (Just because it’s fun, doesn’t mean it’s easy).

Missouri swim coach, native-born Alaskan, neo-Viking, and sometime-SwimSwam contributor Shawn Klosterman has found a lot of great ways to keep his Berzerker Swimming athletes engaged while they’re frozen of the water.

Among the best is an entire dryland workout using a roll of toilet paper.

Yes, the world’s second most-valuable commodity after hand sanitizer. Don’t have any to risk on a workout? Try something a little more dispensible, like a giant ball of socks, or a brick of 24-carat gold.

Warmup

Here’s a straightforward ab workout:

Main Set:

Run through this three times, rest about 1 minute between sets. Add a good 10 minute cardio effort like a jog/brisk walk at the end to finish it off.
