This book is completely waterproof. Swimmers can take the book pool-side and plan their workout as they swim. Each page of workouts is cut into three segments--the first segment contains a warm up, the second a main set, and the third a cool down. The book can easily be configured into over 6,700 different workouts by combining any warm up with any main set and any cool down. In other words, if the book is used three days a week, it would take over 40 years before the same workout is repeated! The book presents three levels of workouts, from beginner to intermediate. The three segments allow swimmers to mix and match their workouts by combining any of the levels together. Swimmers can vary their routine simply by flipping the segments. | | | |

Excellent for beginners & advanced who need a training plan. Aug 21, 2001
By Lonny Potecho Here is my case, I used to swim in a team a few years ago, and it was fun but then I had to quit due to lack of time, now since sports is a very important part of my life I came back but got bored from swimming laps and doing the same thing all the time, and when I tried to mix some training drills my muscules hurt a lot. Now that I bought this book I can't wait for the swimming session every single day, it has so many programs that you just can't get bored, and most important it has 3 parts in every day that you swim - warm up, main training program, and relaxation which is very important. This book is a must have for every serious or professional swimmer who swims alone and without a trainer.

Author Comment Nov 13, 2005
By Thomas A. Denes
"waterprfch"
Mr. Zohar is correct that The Waterproof Coach is more helpful to the beginning swimmer or triathlete than to the competitive swimmer. The workouts are mostly freestyle because most fitness swimmers are not proficient in the other strokes. The book is a bit pricey at $29.95 but that is because it is printed on completely waterproof paper. The paper costs three times as much as regular paper. In addition, the workout pages are cut into thirds so that the swimmer can mix and match workouts. This is an expensive part of the manufacturing process. Most of the fitness swimmers and triathletes who have purchased the book since 1997 have been happy with it.

The Waterproof Coach:The Waterproof Workout Book for Fitness Jun 03, 2000 I loved this book! As a new swimmer, it was very helpful, especially the section where the author describes terms used in swimming. My swimming partner, a seasoned swimmer, loved the book so much that she immediately ordered a copy. We shared the book between two lanes and were able to flip back from the basic workout (for me) to a more advanced workout for her. During our first workout I accidentally dropped the book in the water. I dried it off and it is as good as new.

A must-have poolside companion Sep 07, 2005
By Canned Heat Let's preface this review with the fact that I'm a neophyte "fitness swimmer" . . I've swam before, but only recently had begun swimming for fitness. This book is exactly what I was looking for . . an easy-to-use book with a great variety of workouts. Because it is waterproof (as the title suggests), I can take it to the pool with me to instantly refer to its contents. Sure, if you're a Master's swimmer, or have swam competetively with a coach, this book may be superfluous. But for the rest of us, it's wonderful.

Great Resource Nov 28, 2003
By Eric-Jay
"Eric-Jay"
I was skeptical that a book could provide a workout similar to that from a coach or master's swimming program, but this book does exactly that. The ability to mix and match workouts to suit your level and objectives is really a huge benefit. I will certainly continue to use this as a regular resource for my training. The only negative is the pages are a bit hard to get dry and tend to stick together when wet.
