Warm-up, main set, cool-down. Type in the reps and it keeps the running total, works out your send-offs against the clock, and prints a sheet you can read on the pool deck. No login, no plan to follow. You write it, you swim it.
New to swimming? Zero to 1K, 8 weeks from a few lengths to a kilometre.
Five sessions to begin from. Tap one and it drops into the builder, then change whatever you like.
A set you can't take to the pool is just a note. SwimSet gets it onto your Garmin.
Every set exports as a real .FIT workout, copy it to your watch and it runs in Garmin's native workout player, strokes and send-offs included.
Send a set as a link or a clean image card, lane mates open it, tweak it, swim it. No accounts anywhere.
SwimSet on the watch itself: guided rep-by-rep swimming, automatic length counting and a send-off buzz on your wrist. Free on the Connect IQ Store — build a set, tap Watch code, paste it into the app's settings.
Build on your phone, tap once, and the set is waiting the next time you open SwimSet on the watch, even if you sent it from the sofa.
Most go warm-up, a short sharpener, the main set, then a cool-down. That's the whole shape, the rest is detail.
Easy swimming, a little kick and some drills to find your stroke. Usually 15-25% of the session, all low zones.
Short, sharp efforts, builds, descends or technique work, to bridge the gap before the main set. Optional, but it sharpens you.
The reason you got in: endurance, threshold or sprint work. Where the send-offs matter and most of the distance sits.
Easy, loose swimming to flush the legs and arms. A few hundred metres of recovery to finish, never skip it.
