Designing effective training sets is a daily responsibility for swimming coaches. Irrespective of the level of the group or of individual swimmers, training must be well planned and specific for the needs and abilities of the swimmers. Workouts are generally planned in advance, but may need modifying depending on the readiness and/or fatigue levels of the swimmers at the time of training.
