About this episode
In this episode of the Real Coaching podcast Joel revisits the topic of effective triathlon swim training, on the basis of the original popular "Top 20 Rules for Faster Triathlon Swimming' article. Joel coverers why conditioning trumps drills, the role of frequency and volume in swim training, how to use swim 'toys' such as band, pull buoy and paddles, and different types of paddles. Joel also covers program design and set design and why triathlon swimming is different than pool swim training.
