Remote Swim GRoup
Cardinal Performance Swimming hosts a remote swim group allowing athletes to have access to swim and gym programming along with training camps and racing opportunities.
What is the cardinal remote swim group?
The remote swim groups offers senior swimmers the opportunity to have flexibility with their training. Senior athletes and Masters swimmers have busy lives to juggle. Our remote group allows you to train anywhere and everywhere while still being part of a great team. Monthly swim & gym programmes are sent out to our members for them to perform in their own time.
Throughout the season Cardinal swimmers come together to race at local, regional, national and international events. Though remotely training being part of the Cardinal team is very important to us. We love fast relays and fast swimming. Within the group at the moment we have multiple National medallists and National Champions along with Multiple Masters National Champions and British Record Holders. We have also had swimmers race at the Mare Nostrum Swim Tour in 2023 along with swimmers racing throughout Europe and the USA at some of the worlds biggest swim meets. At Cardinal we believe that you can still compete and train at the highest of levels even as an adult!
How the remote group works?
Once you have signed up to the remote swim group you will be emailed a link to sign up to the Cardinal Performance Swimming App. From here you will be able to access all the swim and gym programmes assigned to you.
The training is broken down into Sprint, Middle Distance and Distance. You as the swimmer can decide which programme suits your goals. Sprint will be short and fast, maybe spending less than an hour in the pool during some sessions. Middle Distance is a good mix of both Sprint and Distance programmes and Distance will be a lot of long aerobic work with a sprinkle of speed in here and there. There will be 5 sessions written out and available for swimmers to complete. You can complete as many or as little sessions as you like. You know your body best and what works for you.
Membership is a flat rate of £70 a month and for that you will receive both swim and gym programmes. You will also be fully affiliated to Cardinal Performance Swimming and be able to compete under Solent Cardinal Performance Swimming.
