Who It's For

Masters Swimmer

Chasing a personal best at 43.

You've been swimming for years. You know the basics. But somewhere between 200m and 400m your stroke falls apart and the clock doesn't lie. Stroke gives you a weekly plan built around your specific weaknesses — not a generic beginner program.

Strong on the bike. Terrified in open water.

You can hold 300 watts and run a 7-minute mile. But the moment the water goes dark below you, everything tightens. Stroke's open water module rebuilds your breathing pattern and sighting technique so you exit the water with energy left to race.

I'd been stuck at 1:28 per hundred for three years. Week six of the catch-and-pull module, I went 1:19. I actually cried in the locker room.
