Welcome to Week 6!
If you are reading this workout, it is because you are interested in a simple, easy-to-swim but very effective plan (aka. structured by a coach), so you can easily get in the pool and swim.
Each week you will have 3 workouts to choose from. Ideally, you will do them serially (1, then 2, then 3). If you swim more than 3 days per week, go 1, 2, etc.
As mentioned in the introduction, independent of your age, and especially if you are over 40, I highly recommend adding 1 or 2 Strength and Mobility workouts during the week. I can’t stress this enough. Plan available here for both Gym and Home
