High Intensity Training

After a hiatus to refresh the mind and body, mywaterworld.life resumes providing news and access to technical articles. Our aim is to assist members of the masters swimming movement, in this case, but not exclusively, the coaches to develop their knowledge of the various types of training that they can implemented with their swimmers.

Today the focus is on High Intensity Training (HIT) .  The scientific article by Gian Mario Migliaccio, PhD and Johnny Padulo, PhD published by Swimming Science titled the “Complete Guide to HIT (High Intensity Training for Swimmers)” is quite technical in nature.  (Unless you are completely familiar with terminology, mywaterworld.life suggests that readers take note of the various definitions within the article as they work their way through it.

In the article the authors discuss a broad range of aspects of HIT style training including the physiology that underpins it, its principles and benefits, the resulting adaptions and critically, and in a practical sense, how to construct HIT sessions.
