Q&A #89 - Typical training week structures; Frequency and load of hard workouts; Stacking hard workouts; Intensity control during swimming

  • What would be some good starting points for a weekly training structure?
  • How many hard workouts is reasonable to include, and how much of a training load should they comprise?
  • Does the load of hard workouts differ between triathletes and single-sport athletes? 
  • Can stacking harder workouts be a good strategy to get more relative rest between hard days?
  • How can adult-onset swimmers in particular maintain intensity control and avoid overloading too much when it comes to swimming?
