Synopsis

Free Speed is coach Paul Eaglestone's breakthrough training method that combines
efficient swimming technique with a pace-setting formula to achieve faster
triathlons. It's perfect for the
triathlete or competitive swimmer.

The idea behind
Paul's innovative training system is loosely based on ultra short-race pace
training, but with fewer sets, and maintaining effort levels rather than
working at constant maximum effort. By measuring efficiency through stroke
count against time-specific goals and with Paul's swimming technique - including
better muscle performance - the triathlete can preserve energy for the cycling
and running legs of the triathlon without sacrificing pace in the water. His
method brings a cycling mentality to swimming through hydrodynamics, attention
to detail, and marginal gains through mental training.

With this book, the
triathlete or swimmer will

  • train and practice using the best swim technique
  • improve pace over short distances using Paul's 17/20 method;
  • progress to race distance without sacrificing form or speed;
  • understand every aspect of triathlon swimming, including basic equipment,
    race planning, opener water swimming, starts and turns, and more;
  • have the tools to design their own training sessions based on their own
    specific goals and targets; and
  • get the most out of each training session.
