Training philosophy.<br />
• Aerobic based development.<br />
• At the same time an “interesting” and motivating program.<br />
• Use other cyclic sports to develop the Aerobic Capacity like;<br />
Nordic ski, rowing, sky walk, biking, running, etc. During the<br />
general part of the preparation.<br />
• Dry land program in between 25 and 35 % total training<br />
time.<br />
• Healthy and injury free swimmers.<br />
• High demand on technical skills at all times.<br />
• Create a trainings program that helps the swimmers to<br />
experience POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT all year long.<br />

From learn to swim to the <strong>Olympic</strong>s.<br />
• Aerobic based training<br />
• Yearly Volume in between 2000 and 3000 km.<br />
• Average x week (46 weeks) = in between 44 and 65 km.<br />
• At an average of 3 km/hour gives us in between 15 and 22 hours of swim<br />
training x week.<br />
• Normally 10 training sessions a week = in between 1 ½ and 2 ½ hours x session.<br />
• I apply so called “high volume” weeks with triple workout days and max<br />
volume around 80 km x week (for the distance group).<br />
• A lot of Aerobic Capacity work is done in between the HIGH INTENSITY sets /<br />
workouts.<br />
• During the “TAPER” we only lower significant the volume with the so called<br />
“sprinters”, all the others lower the intensity and not so much the volume.<br />

Training philosophy.<br />
What do we need, to have success at World Championships and OG?<br />
• Talented motivated and “professional” swimmers and coaches.<br />
• A training program, at least as good as the BIGGER and leading countries , USA, AUS,<br />
GBR, JAP, RUS, CHN, HUN, GER, ….<br />
• “Super” competitors , especially in the second part (+ last part) of the race.<br />
• Swim FAST in the Heats, FASTER in the Semi final and FASTEST in the Final.<br />
• (link to results Rome 2009)<br />
• + recovery capacity, both during competition as well as to assure high quality during<br />
training en general + better and faster recovery during high intensity sets.. (aerobic<br />
based training)<br />

From learn to swim to the <strong>Olympic</strong>s.<br />
• How did we arrive at this extra ordinary high level in<br />
international <strong>swimming</strong>?<br />
• The 60 ‘ ties – start of training systems, interval training, talent is much more important than<br />
training.<br />
• The 70 ’ ties – the training volume is increasing, people start to do double training, some of<br />
them do triple.<br />
• The 80 ‘ ties – even more volume, (Sweetenham and Schubert) trying to beat each other with<br />
even more km. Where is the limit?<br />
• The 90 ‘ ties – Switching from volume to intensity, especial in Europe. Political revolution<br />
provoke s poor results for the communist countries. WR do not improve any more at the same<br />
rhythm.<br />
• Sydney 2000 - USA keeps up the level, Europe is drowning. Best ever <strong>Olympic</strong> Swimming Games.<br />
AUS and Asia leading……<br />
• 2005/7– Europe is fighting to get back. AUS y USA change with each other the leadership in<br />
Men and Women.<br />
• 2008 and 2011 - AUS and USA still leading far ahead, the rest of the world following in the<br />
shadow , many countries with individual super talented swimmers, many of them live and train<br />
abroad (USA). GBR, BRA and DEN are the countries who develop most (and fast). LINK TS LONDON<br />

Training philosophy.<br />
What does that mean for the preparation of my swimmers?<br />
• Prepare the 200 meter at world class level and compete also in the 100.<br />
• Prepare the 400 at world class level and compete also in the 200.<br />
• Prepare the 800 / 1500 at world class level and compete also the 400.<br />
• Prepare the 10.000 and help the team to think “big” in volume if necessary.<br />
• Maybe with some extremely motivated and talented swimmers, prepare the<br />
100 at world class level and compete in the 50.<br />

AT 3 - 5 30 - 20 AEP 12 - 24<br />
AT = Anaerobic Threshold = mix between between AErobic and ANaerobic work.<br />
• Many years considered as a very important specific intensity point.<br />
• Some Scientifics consider(ed) it to be at 4 mmol/l. lactate.<br />
• Many coaches found out that it was most of the time closer to 3.<br />
• Now we know that it is very individual and it is not considered a “point” any more where<br />
Aerobic work changes in Anaerobic work.<br />
• There is not such a point, now we speak about progressive increasing of lactate production.<br />
• Explain what I did and what I do now, considering AT.<br />
• Be careful !! (practical example of a mix up between what we pretend the workout to be and<br />
what ambition and illusion can “disturb”.<br />

LC 5 - 7 30 - 10 AEP 12 - 36<br />
LC = Lactate Clearance = Learn how to “use” the produced lactate in the energy production.<br />
•This is a “new” concept to be considered in our training.<br />
•You can learn to produce lactate and you can learn how to re-use the lactate.<br />
•The idea is to “teach” the body how to use the produced lactate within the metabolic energy<br />
production system. (energy_systems.pdf)<br />
•Some of the most talented swimmers (physiological talented) are able to do that extremely well. I<br />
think that this is the big difference between them, not the technique, the strength (endurance) or<br />
their trainings level.<br />
•Examples, Wolfgang, Silvia, Joaquim, Erika, Xavi, Lotte, Hacket, Manadou, Phelps and others.<br />
• (buffer capacity)<br />
•Very specific for the working cells and their neighbors.<br />
• Also improvement when Aerobic recovery work is done after high intensity work.

and 1500 meter <strong>events</strong>.<br />
• Not so long ago we (I) thought that VO2 max was reached with lower lactate levels.<br />
• Swimmers need to have high energy levels to be able to perform in this zone during workout, both<br />
in their body as well as in their mind.<br />
• It is clearly the highest demanding work to do / be done.<br />
• You can also call this kind of work Race Pace, it all depends on the set you offer them.<br />
• Again this has to be done with specific work (stroke, FR, duration) because the muscle cell benefits<br />
most.<br />
• Needs a long recovery time and too many too often is the main reason for “over training”.<br />

• Should and can be done from the beginning of the season.<br />
• Now a days considered as basic as the AEC work.<br />
• Should be developed together with increasing the strength.<br />
• High FR and if possible DPS.<br />
•Complete recovery and volume depending on the level on which the set is done.<br />

Season Planning<br />
Paulus Wildeboer DSF
From learn to swim to the <strong>Olympic</strong>s.<br />
ONE cycle x year for promising very young age group swimmers<br />
<strong>One</strong> cycle year plan in order to develop the best possible technique.<br />
Dry land => learn to control your body<br />
Feel the water => gliding, sculling, playing all kind of games in the (un deep) water.<br />
Learn to kick => to learn to swim the competition strokes you need a very good kick.<br />
Learn different parts of the complete stroke => “drills”.<br />
Put everything together => swim short distances with a “perfect” technique.<br />
Paulus Wildeboer DSF
From learn to swim to the <strong>Olympic</strong>s.<br />
TWO cycles x year for age group swimmers ( 23 / 24 weeks each).<br />
1st cycle => for age group swimmers (25 m. pool)<br />
Dry land and technique (like the one year cycle).<br />
Develop the AEC and ANC in all 5 strokes.<br />
Develop the AEP / ANP with VO2max sets.<br />
Compete in 25 meter pool and swim a lot of PB´s.<br />
Rest for 1 or 2 weeks. (summer 2 or 3 weeks)<br />
2nd cycle => for age group swimmers (50 m. pool)<br />
Dry land and technique (like the one year cycle).<br />
Develop the AEC and ANC in all 5 strokes.<br />
Develop the AEP / ANP with VO2max sets.<br />
Compete in 50 meter pool and repeat or improve the 25 m. times<br />
Rest for 1 or 2 weeks. (summer 2 or 3 weeks)<br />
Paulus Wildeboer DSF
1st cycle => (25 m. pool)<br />
From learn to swim to the <strong>Olympic</strong>s.<br />
THREE cycles x year for junior and senior swimmers /15 / 16 weeks each).<br />
Dry land and technique (like the two year cycle).<br />
Develop the AEC and ANC as general as possible.<br />
Develop the AEC and ANC more specific.<br />
Develop the AEP / ANP according to the individual qualities and needs.<br />
Do a complete taper in order to “learn” about each swimmer.<br />
Compete in 25 meter pool and swim a lot of PB´s.<br />
Rest for 1 week. (summer 2 or 3 weeks)<br />
3 x<br />
• 2 cycle => 50 m. pool and qualify for the summer.<br />
• 3 cycle => 50 m. pool and obtain the best performance from the whole season.<br />

Paulus Wildeboer DSF
From learn to swim to the <strong>Olympic</strong>s.<br />
To make sure that your swimmers progress from year to<br />
year and within the season ;<br />
• Volume before intensity.<br />
•Work from general to specific, during the years and during each season and<br />
during each meso cycle.<br />
• Give each swimmer, or group of swimmers, standard sets, build them up<br />
during the cycle / season and make them swim at Race Pace (RP) as economic<br />
as possible. Better slower and perfect than agonic.<br />
• Increase the volume around 20% each year (age group and junior )<br />
• Total fitness, especially girls and even more after 01-01-2010.<br />
• Increase the strength (relative strength).<br />
• Work on and improve the Capacities ALWAYS before the Power.<br />
• Use a battery of tests to control the progression and to help you to evaluate<br />
what you are doing<br />

LTDP progresion in each intensity zone related to age and gender.
From learn to swim to the <strong>Olympic</strong>s.<br />
To make sure that your swimmers progress from year to year and within the<br />
season ;<br />
• Use a battery of tests to control the progression and to help you to evaluate , that<br />
what you are doing is OK, or should be improved.<br />
• Do not blame the swimmers or the Swimming Federation for failure and yourself<br />
for success. YOU ARE THE RESPONSABLE PERSON IN THIS GAME.<br />
• Give each swimmer, or group of swimmers, standard sets, build them up during the<br />
cycle / season and make them swim at Race Pace (RP) as economic as possible.<br />
Better slower and perfect than agonic.<br />
• Do not over compete.<br />
• Use “normal” competition as the best training in the world.<br />
• Do not rest the girls so much. (% body fat).<br />
Paulus Wildeboer DSF
From learn to swim to the <strong>Olympic</strong>s.<br />
To make sure that your swimmers progress from year to year and within the<br />
season ;<br />
• Do 3 or 4 weeks of high volume each meso cycle.<br />
• Do “the peak” of the intensive work before the taper.<br />
•Teach the swimmers to respect you, by demanding as a standard (very close to)<br />
perfection (depending on age and years of training) and at the same time teach<br />
them to be very respectful with each other and themselves. (discipline and self<br />
discipline)<br />
• We are above anything educators and we should use <strong>swimming</strong> as a tool to<br />
make better persons for the rest of their lives. (example face book)<br />
• Swimming has to be; athlete centered, coach driven, “board members “+<br />
parents supported.<br />
Paulus Wildeboer DSF
From learn to swim to the <strong>Olympic</strong>s.<br />
To make sure that your swimmers progress from year to year and within the<br />
season ;<br />
• You can only increase the volume or intensity from the workouts if you<br />
increase the recovery curcumstances.<br />
• Be very carefull when you increase the intensity, make sure thta you keep at<br />
least the aerobic capacities.<br />
• More volume (?)or mas intensity (?), a better balance between the two (?)<br />
(Oldbrecht), you need to aply an inteligent structure (!!!), it will always be an<br />
adventure trying to find new ways of development/improvement.<br />
• Remember that 1+1 = not always 2 in performance sport-<br />
• Golden rule: “the goal = 100% performance with 90% effort”.
From learn to swim to the <strong>Olympic</strong>s.<br />

to improve <strong>swimming</strong> every day a little bit, just like we want our swimmers<br />
Improve day by day.<br />
• Club Team ���� ���� National Team<br />
• “Not all old stuff is bad“ , we are going back to real <strong>swimming</strong>……… = more coaching.<br />
• “Not all new stuff is amazing” sometimes small changes can really make things change!<br />
• How can the smaller countries FIGHT against the “almighty” bigger countries<br />
with a huge population and so much more possibilities to find the “super” talent?<br />
• You (we) need to have a great plan.<br />
