Whether you’re a novice exerciser or you’ve been exercising for years, interval training can help you jazz up your workout routine. Consider the benefits: - You’ll Improve Technique: By taking repetitive but short breaks, you will train your body to only swim at a higher body position and at greater speed. - You’ll Burn More Calories: Taking short breaks in the workout allows you train at a higher intensity and thus elevate your heart rate. - Improved Aerobic Capacity: As your cardiovascular fitness improves, you’ll be able to train longer, faster and with more efficiency. - Added Variety: Swimming the same routine over and over can get boring and monotonous. When you do interval training, there is no limit to what you can accomplish. - No Equipment Needed: All you need is a pace clock at the pool or on your wrist. Even if you don’t have a clock, you can do interval training by breath count between repetitions.
