If you’re unsure how to build a yearly training plan – checkout our Whiteboard Wednesday on How to Build a Yearly Training Plan.

Looks interesting but I’m looking all over the app (I have Pro) and I can’t find this specific workout.
Hi Edward, thanks for your message. We currently don’t have these workouts of the week in our app, but we’re working on having them easily accessible to everyone in the upcoming weeks! Sorry about that, and thanks for your patience 🙂
Can a sidestroke option be added to the app? I don’t swim freestyle. Could never get comfortable with it. But I do workout with breaststroke, backstroke and sidestroke. I want to be able to enter the sidestroke into the app when I log my swims.
Thank you for your feedback! We currently don’t have Sidestroke as a specific stroke, but you could track sidestroke just as ‘Stroke’ in the app and that will work. Let me know if you have any questions!
