Terry Betcher 2015 season

Hey Rich,

Put this in the micro thread but I believe it belongs here

I'm thinking of jumping out of the NOS and into the Half iron program now to get me prepared for Oceanside at the end of March.  Main reason is to start increasing the volume now instead of waiting 4 more weeks.  Thoughts anyone?  Also our pool is closed for maintainence for the next 2 weeks so swimming is going to slim pickings for a while.  Next closest is 90 miles away.

  • Gave this some thought overnight and am going to load up the HI plan now and start prepping for Oceanside.  No pool for 2 weeks but have some travel planned at the end of this week and mid next week where I can get a few swim sessions in.  Thinking I need to start building up the weekend volumes now to accomplish the goal.  Once again, swimming is by far my weakest event.  Just learned to swim 2 years ago and I'm not very good.  If I can get to 2:00 min/100m would be huge for me.  I am in a small northern community with no masters club or anything near that so watching videos and recording myself to get my swimming better. In the past my goal for swimming was just to survive the swim.  It is getting much better with practice. Any thoughts Rich/anyone?  Looking for some ideas 

  • Hi Terry,

    I think you're fine to start the HIM plan now, considering that you've already had several weeks in the OutSeason plan. Good luck!
