Each week I will load three Saturday Swim Session options up for you to do. Option A is for swimmers who are after a workout less than 2,000 metres. Option B is for swimmers who are after a workout between 2,000 and 3,000m and Option C will be greater than 3,000m.
Stamina and Endurance are essential for a number of reasons. If you are a triathlete or open-water swimmer this is useful for the duration of your event. But more so if you are a Master’s Swimmer targeting a shorter pool-based event is that it provides the base fitness on which to build your speed as part of a periodised swimming plan. This session is great for master’s swimmers.

To be an elite-level triathlete you need an exceptional aerobic base. Miles Stewart was well-known as an elite triathlete in the 1990s and into the 2000s. He had an exceptional aerobic base, built by consistent training and a large volume combined with speed. The focus of this session was developing his aerobic base. This session is good for triathletes, as well as open-water swimmers.
This week I’ll take you through what Miles Stewart did, in a fortnight’s time I’ve modified the workout for us mere mortals to be able to complete with the normal three options I publish.
