Swimbox: allenamento nuoto

Do you swim alone and feel like you're not improving?

The problem isn't how much you swim.

It's that you've been repeating the same swimming workout for months, following a plan found in a group or passed on to you by a friend, designed for them, not for you.

Swimbox is the swimming training app that gives you today's session ready to help you improve.

How many meters, at what pace, with which technique exercises, and why those exercises.

WHAT YOU FIND EVERY DAY

• Your workout of the day, ready when you get to the pool
• Your target pace for each set, calculated based on your zones and not someone else's
• Technique exercises explained in video, filtered by your level and equipment
• Veyra, the coach in the app, who tells you the purpose of each set and answers your questions
• Recovery status, to know when to push and when to take it easy
• Your personal bests, in the pool and in open water

NO MORE RANDOMLY DOWNLOADED TABLES

The swimming tables circulating in groups are written for someone else. Here, the training program is based on your goal, your pace, and the days you can actually get in the water.

Tell us where you want to go—returning to swimming after years, breaking a 1:00 mark, preparing for a masters race, or mastering the swim leg of a triathlon—and the plan will be built from there.

Each week, it updates based on your actual improvements, not your projected progress.

If you take a break for a week, it starts right where you left off.

WORKS WITH YOUR WATCH

Connect Garmin and Strava just once, and your swim workouts are already on your wrist when you enter the water, and the sessions automatically populate the app.

WHO IS IT FOR?

For those who swim in a free lane without a coach to watch them. Those starting out as adults, those doing masters swimming, those training for triathlons or open water.

You don't need to be a competitive swimmer, and you don't need a 50-meter pool: the plans take into account the pool you have available and the equipment you own, from paddles to a pull buoy.

FREESTROKE, BACKSTROKE, BREASTSTROKE, BUTTERFLY

Swimming technique work covers all four strokes, with exercises in and on dry land.

For each exercise, you'll find out what it should produce and what you should feel while doing it, not just how to do it.

WHO'S BEHIND IT

Swimbox was born at the Forlì Municipal Pool, where we train real swimmers every day. The method inside the app is by Alessandro Resch, FITRI National Swimming Instructor and author of the manual "Swimbox — The Art and Mechanics of Freestyle."

It's not an algorithm that learned swimming online: it's what we say poolside, written inside an app.
