Workout Wednesday: Big Lats!

Happy Workout Wednesday! This week is going to make your lats burn and build up that muscular endurance. There will be lots of pull work which means plenty of opportunities to work on the catch and pull phases of your stroke. Get ready to have some fun! If you do this right, then your lats are going to be feeling it. I hope you enjoy this 3000 to 3200 yard/meter swim session perfect for any triathlete or swimmer! Don’t let your friends miss out so make sure you share this one with them.
