Together with Grant Stoelwinder, who is coach to Gillette ambassador and Olympic swimmer, Eamon Sullivan, Gillette has prepared this training session to get your day off to a great start.

SWIMMING FITNESS PROGRAM

To keep training interesting, consider interchanging your sessions with a swimming session a couple of times a week. Swimming is great as there is little impact on the body and can be a great way to relax ahead of a busy day.

Swim workout tips:

• Use interval training to plan your session
• Fins provide great assistance and allow better technique for longer
• Having a kit bag of Fins, Pull Buoy and a set of paddles helps break up the session and keeps it interesting
• If you have had neck or back problems try a front snorkel that can be purchased online or at various swim shops.

There are 3 sessions (A, B and C) for each fitness and experience level. As you get stronger and fitter, go up to the next level.

SESSION A: BEGINNER SWIM PROGRAM

SESSION B: INTERMEDIATE SWIM PROGRAM

SESSION C: ADVANCED SWIM PROGRAM
