Welcome to the KISS series!
KISS stands for Keep It Simple & Swim
Each workout will have just a few intentional drills to focus on technique and a main set that is easily adjustable for yardage or intensity.
I hope you enjoy this session, the 2nd KISS, video footage from our amazing Elite Endless Pool!
Each workout in the series, can be found on the SweetWater KISS Series Showcase on Vimeo, click here!
