Once a year in winter training we dedicate a day to 100 x 100s and let me tell you it is HELL

These comments make me appreciate my sets at swimming more.

all these comments here about all these sets and i cant even do a 100 butterfly

42x50m butterfly mark my words. Rest 1min every 20x50's and the last two are @200m pace.

we had 50×100...to 1.15

We have EEFAS, Every Event From A Start. You start with a 1500 and work your way through, it's max effort no rest between each event and you have to do a proper race start for each event.

I once read about an interview with michael Phelps coach. Coach was asked the toughest set he gave out ? 20 x 200M Butterfly with 5 second rest in between at race pace. The journalist asked "why would you disclose your secrets for competitors to hear ? Coach's reply " because no other Fucker would do what Michael does in training"

Worst ive done was 2 1650’s. I’m dead

Hold up, did he say 4k IM?

There's this event called 'The Wall' - it's a 1500m that's split into 800m free + 100m fly + 200m Bk + 200m B/S + 200m free. Swimming that as a raced event can sort you out if you haven't properly trained for it. Although the best part is the turn out of the fly into the back. You come up on your back and your body goes, "Mmmmmmmmmmmmm. At last." (I'm mostly a specialist backstroker ...) 800m Medleys are "fun" too.

16 x 600m freestyle at strong/almost sprinting pace with 30 seconds of rest in between each one. If you gave up or skipped a 50 you had to do an extra set at the end of practice. I didnt skip or give up but the people that did had to do 8 x 200 IM descending pace

For me it was 20x100 free a1:20 best average on LCM. After 8 I begang to count down, which I never did. By far the hardest that I have ever done, but it paid of I think

My worst was 60x100m in 1.10

for me anything butterfly or 12:100's main pull (breastoke pull is the worst ) or just anything butterfly oh and freestyle sprints i hate sprinting i love distance in racing but hate training it

Mine is 1x25

I once did 12 x 75m butterfly and thought it was going to be super hard but you actually get into a pace and you don't feel your arms burning. So I would say that my hardest set was 15 x 100m best average. ( i'm a sprinter so this was absolute torture )

20x100 at 1m minute 10

Bruh 50 by 400 75 percent none stop

4x50s d/s freestyle 4x50s sprint freestyle 200 race freestyle 4x50s d/s butterfly 4x50s sprint butterfly 200 race butterfly 4x50s d/s freestyle 4x50s sprint freestyle 200 race freestyle And this was long course

I once did a short-course 1500 at race pace, on a 40 degree day, indoors under a tin roof, in a pool that was at least 36 degrees (I asked the owner afterwards, and he kinda laughed when he told me). I finished the 1500 but couldn't do the rest of the session. (The time was a national record for my age, but I think the vomit afterwards was also a national record.) There were only one or two other people in the pool, because, as the owner said, "It's actually too hot to be swimming."

50x100 backstroke with bucket 💀💀💀 idk we have that

Worst punishment set 48x100 fly. No specific time, something around 1:30. It was just ment to make you suffer. Sometimes I still have nightmare about that 🤮 and it was about 15 years ago

200 25s @20 seconds interval

10x200 on 2:30. After that was 100x25 of 15 seconds

For me 4x120m fly 6 rounds 120m because our pool is 30meters so it is hard

1000 fast 800 fast 600 fast 400 fast 200 fast then 100 fast 200 fast 300 fast 400 fast 500 fast 600 fast 700 fast then you go down.

4 x (400, 300, 200, 100) on 1:10 per 100 LCM Sets 1 & 3 free Sets 2 & 4 Bk Sets 3 + 4 w/ paddles. It was brutal.

6×200 fly. I was 13yo back then. And another one: 16×100 in your main stroke (mine is fly), but you do 25max, then 5sec rest and that 4 times. I don't know how you call it, we call it 100m broken. (Actually I didn't swim this one I was sitting outside with a broken thumb, but I saw the others (mostly 12yo) suffer)
