Hello Sufferlandrians, This may have been addressed earlier. My wife and I are doing a sprint tri plan thus off-season, but cannot complete swim training due to pools being shut down in our area. Any suggestions on a good substitute. For background, my wife competes in triathlon and I am just trying something different this winter. Thanks, Joe ---

When we released our all-in plans, the sport science team designed a couple of swim strength workout you can do as a substitute to swimming: ![Screenshot 2020-11-26 at 09.05.10](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/thesufferfest/original/2X/d/d9506d2ad8c285b03dc9b3a5d1a4f92b49e8dca6.jpeg) ---

Same here, pools all shut, so I’ve been keeping up the outdoor swimming… Not much structure I can do in cold Irish winter, but at least 20-30 mins in the lake has other benefits. Is here an outdoor swim possible nearby. Some drills and some distance work, so mainly focusing on swim form… ---

That’s a good duration though. I’m managing only just over 10 minutes without a wetsuit and no drills or breaks. It’s just get in, warm up, swim constantly, jump out. ---

Hi, we have temporarily removed these form the app as we are in the process of re-mastering them. ---
