Your Endurance Lifestyle. Redesigned.

Swimming is one of the most challenging aspects of being a triathlete. It’s a great way to recover and pile on aerobic training when the biking and running becomes too much, but actually building swimming fitness is another project altogether. Some folks spend a lifetime — or at least the better part of their first 20 years on this planet — striving to reach their potential.

Improving your efficiency as a swimmer is one of the hardest parts of being a triathlete. Not because swimming is that incredibly hard, but because proper swimming is a skill-oriented exercise. All the fitness in the world won’t help you if only 5% of that strength is contributing to your forward motion in the water.

Sometimes too much gear is, well, too much. It’s cumbersome. It needs maintenance. It requires attention. It becomes an end in an of itself, instead of something to improve your training. In this post I am going to explore how to improve your training while reducing things to their most fundamental elements. Can you get better by process of elimination?
