Core duration and readiness

Planned core: 35 minutes. Proposed core, including dryland and discussion; not a required two-hour workout or attendance minimum. Time caps override repeat counts. Choose short blocks and voluntary pauses first. Athletes may finish after a 20–30 minute pool core when that matches their assessed level. Attendance frequency and full-session duration are individual coach decisions.

Pool course and volume

Current training pool: 25-yard pool (SCY); 1 length = 25 yd. No numeric total training volume is assigned. This facility configuration does not establish the course of pace references or meet results.
