This review is from: One Hour Workouts: 100 Short Course Swim Workouts Averaging 2500 Yards or Meters (Spiral-bound)

I am a returning competitive swimmer who has not hit the pool regularly for over two years. Workouts are great because they incorporate all strokes, and I can already feel myself becoming stronger and my muscles are notably larger. The intervals may need adjusting as you become faster, but the book does also suggest doubling the set length and still trying to complete it in 1 hour to make an advanced workout. Without a coach, this book is an excellent pool-side guide and finally gave my workouts direction. I am definitely getting better results with these workouts than the 2,000 or so meters I was swimming on my own without a direct purpose to the set.

This is a great guide to swimming workouts. It definitely helps break up the monotony. I have young children and can't make it to Master Swim workouts. This is the next best thing.
