Incorporating dryland exercises to your swim workout is a surefire way to get your heart pumping! The added variety challenges your muscles differently than your usual back-and-forth swim workout – and it mixes up your typical routine.
If that sounds like just what you need, give this 30-minute swim and dryland workout a try!
This workout comes out to 1,000 yards or meters, but don’t let that fool you…it’s extremely challenging if you push yourself on the sprints!
