I have been training with Outpace Swim Workouts for only a short time but I have already noticed improvement in my fitness and good improvement in swim speed Ben is really easy to deal with and always fast to reply back to any question I have. I find my plan fun and interesting would totally recommend Outpace Swim Works.

I have been training using Ben’s swim programmes for a number of years and found them great.  They have the right mix of easy and hard workloads, and the differing paces of the sets ensure that you are working across a range of speeds and intensities.  While swim programmes can seem repetitive I never find that is the case with Ben’s programmes and even on days when my motivation is low there is always a challenge to get up for.

Outpace has been providing workouts for our Master’s Swimming Club for several months now. The workouts are varied and challenging, with just the right mix of strokes, pace times, drills and distances to keep us motivated. There is always a part of the workout for technique, speed and endurance to provide a great balance for fitness. Thanks Ben!

I’d gladly recommend Outpace swim workouts. Ben has carefully tailored the program to suit swimmers of any level. The plan contains enough variety to keep the mind engaged as well as encourage training consistency. I started using Ben’s program in May 2021. Back then I swam 1-2 lengths at a time. Now, 15 months later, my average pace per 100m has increased by 30 seconds.

Anita

I’ve been fortunate enough to have been included in a squad for which Ben prepares the sessions (along with trying to keep up with Ben himself!). Ben’s sessions are fantastic. They provide variety and keep us all challenged. He has an ability to structure sessions so that we are challenged and motivated and time passes quickly. When I was racing I was able to progress from a novice swimmer, to a front pack Ironman swimmer whilst swimming with Ben and the squad. I have now taken a step back from racing, but still thoroughly enjoy Ben’s sessions which I complete 3 times per week. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ben’s squads, and also his sessions to anyone who wants to enjoy their swimming but also make some serious swimming gains!
