Training Schedule

In July:
Swim for at least 20 minutes, at least once each week.

In August: 
Swim for 40 minutes non-stop, at least two times.

Week prior: 
Swim non-stop for at least one hour.

Watch a video about the remarkable "Redneck Endless Pool" long-distance swim trainer. (Remarkable, ridiculous - what's the difference? But it works - yes, it does!)

The above schedule is a minimal training estimate for an average person and it in no way guarantees success. Always consult a health or fitness professional before embarking on a new exercise regimen.
