# Beginner Swim Workout PDF — 1500m Repeatable 100s

For swimmers who already swim 100m comfortably and want an easy structured session.

Who this session suits

For swimmers new to structured training who can swim 100m comfortably and recently completed about 1000m in a session. Keep an easy 3–4/10 effort and breathe whenever needed. If control deteriorates, pause and shorten the next repeat to 50m. Short version: one main round gives 1000m. Repeat this session before increasing distance; finish with the same breathing and stroke rhythm you started with.
