In this guest blog post, Egypt-based MySwimPro Ambassador Sameh Saeb (@samehsaeb) shares how MySwimPro is helping him enjoy the sport of swimming with his children, and prepare for triathlon season.
Meet Sameh:
Hi everyone! My name is Sameh Saeb and I live in Cairo, Egypt.
My relationship with swimming started when I was a kid on a swim team in Southern California. It lasted until I moved back to my home country, Egypt where I dropped off at the age of 14. I’ve been swimming on and off since I became an adult but only recently became more serious about it when I started triathlon.
I have three boys, 11 and 12 years old who are all on the swim team. I spend my time swimming alongside them supporting them and trying to act as a role model.
I am currently training for a 5k Open Water Race and following the 12-Week Training Plan in MySwimPro to prepare.
I’ve been training with the MySwimPro app for the past 3 months and I can tell you that it is life changing. That is no understatement.
With MySwimPro I have much more structure in my workouts, clear tracked progress and best of all constant encouragement on the way to keep me striving for more.
I have tried many apps, but what differentiates MySwimPro is the entire ecosystem built around it. It’s not just an app, it is a community.
I follow the workouts on my watch, and it syncs automatically to my Strava account so I can see all my swim, bike, run workouts in one feed.
“MySwimpro brought structure to my training plans. Instead of aimlessly swimming 1.5 to 2k, now, I have a complete plan that can take me to +4k!“
Now my boys have to wait until I finish to go home!
What I love about MySwimPro is the structure it brings to my workouts and the ability to track progress and continuously improve my fitness. I am feeling great!
At my recent triathlon, I was the first of my age group to come out of the water, which I was very proud of.
My next goal is to complete a full Ironman, so stay tuned!
