Coach Notes
The swim coach was asked to define any shorthand he or she used in this workout. Their notes should provide some additional context to this swimming workout.
The 4 x 25 Underwater Kick set is part of a 12-week progression to improve underwater kicking speed and distance. This is week 3 for that.
EN3 speed and EN1,2,3 intervals were derived from Cruise Interval test
