To start your swimming sessions smoothly without going overboard straight away, Nabaiji has put together a special “back to the water” workout, inspired by the best methods of burning excess calories, to help you get back in shape!
It all boils down to adjusting our workouts to incorporate changes in strokes, equipment and rhythm, while taking advantage of rest times. ~
Training session：45mins - 1hour ／3 times a week
The most important part of your training schedule. Warm up for 15 minutes to wake up all your joints and muscles. Increasing your heart rate will also help you to tap into your reserves faster during your session. It also in a way prevents you from injury and keeps you safe.
Repeat this routine at least 4 times, or more depending on your ease. Don’t hesitate to accelerate over 25 metres during each repetition to get the cardio up faster.
TOTAL : 400 metres
The suggested exercises include alternating different swim strokes, equipment and speed, forcing the body to adapt quickly and thus spend more energy.
The routine should be repeated 3 times. The first time with a pull buoy and swim paddles, the second time with the pull kick and fins, the third time the full stroke (without equipment). ~
Now, cool down while still moving around so that the body relaxes little by little but continues to burn calories. Don’t forget to relax your muscles and concentrate on your swimming technique.
