I occasionally swam with organized groups but my consultant travel schedule made sure that was infrequent. I got a copy of The Fit Swimmer, read it cover to cover and made up about a dozen workouts from the suggested routines. The section on open water racing was particularly valuable. While training diligence was definitely part of it, this book was the #1 resource for me in competitively placing in events ranging from local races to National and Ironman distances. Ms. Brems meets 2 imperatives: she explains things simply and she gives you the tools you need to progress from a relative novice to a competitive swimmer. Like a craftsman and apprentice, she leaves it up to the reader to figure out how to best use the extensive toolset in the book. I found that creating about a dozen workouts on 3x5 cards from her suggested routines and rotating them did the trick (store them in a ziploc bag for use poolside). You can experiment with different routines to test how your body responds. I now coach people on an occasional basis, and strongly encourage each of them to read the book before we start. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ review of "The Fit Swimmer" *by A***H on July 28, 2008* The Fit Swimmer in my initial review appears to be an excellent guide to someone willling and able to follow the advice, training programs and tips given in the book. For someone like myself, a super senior (past 75), I appreciate the advice and tips but I am not training for competition but just fitness purposes. I may adapt one of the training programs offered but for now I'll continue my swimming a mile ( freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke mixture) three times a week until I finish the book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Workout Ideas *by Y***R on November 26, 2009* This book is not a technique book. It won't teach you how to swim. If you're looking for that - look elsewhere. On the opposite extreme, it is not a book for the elite competitive swimmer. It's purpose is not to shave a few tenths of a second from someones already elite times.This is a very good collection of swimming workouts for all levels of fitness swimmers. The book is divided into various levels and utilizes all the strokes. The author also incorporates all the swimming toys (fins, pull buoys, paddles, etc.)The workouts are very creative and enjoyable. I often take the book to the pool (in a nylon bag). This is one of the best workout books I've seen. I purchased it a few years ago and have used it constantly. Highly recommendedA suggestion for future editions: get rid of the part of the book that is not about the workouts and then print the book in a water proof format. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Fit Swimmer: 120 Workouts & Training Tips - The Swimmer's Workout Handbook: Improve Fitness with 100 Swim Workouts and Drills --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nl/products/8368748-the-fit-swimmer-120-workouts-and-training-tips](https://www.desertcart.nl/products/8368748-the-fit-swimmer-120-workouts-and-training-tips) --- *Product available on Desertcart Netherlands* *Store origin: NL* *Last updated: 2026-06-19*
