Race Pace Training

The premise for this training methodology is that race-specific high intensity swimming will yield the optimal performance results and fastest times in competition. The overall goal is to simulate a racing situation in a workout to better prepare an athlete’s body for the actual race.

USRPT: Ultra-Short Race-Pace Training articles

These articles are also available elsewhere in the Swimming Science Journal, particularly in the Swimming Science Bulletin. As articles are developed they are appended to this list.
