Coach Notes

The swim coach was asked to define any shorthand he or she used in this workout. Their notes should provide some additional context to this swimming workout.

UWDK – Under water dolphin Kicks, B/O – Breakouts, DPS – Distance per stroke (we do this with long perfect stroke arms and strong kick), PF – Perfect form (Can be done with fins), AFAP – As fast as possible, End-B – Endurance base (50% of Max HR – Usually done as kick or pull in stroke position), CD – Cool Down (We do this with 1/2 UWDK, rest in as few strokes as possible)
