TRAINING

Otter currently offer a of several sessions a week. Our members have a range of personal goals from getting fit through, to improving swimming for triathlon, to competing at National & International Masters competitions, to swimming across the Channel. As a guide, we have swimmers with personal bests for 100m freestyle ranging from 52 to 90 seconds. Sessions are usually a mixture of freestyle, medley and choice stroke sets and will include kick, pull and full stroke (kick boards and pull bouys are not provided due to Covid restriction). The intensity of the sessions will usually depend on the proximity of the next competitive meet, and the particular period of training we’re in.
