MAIN SET: 1000/800 + 100
Fastest two lanes do the complete pyramid. The slower lane does only one of the 200s. On the way up the pyramid, swim at an easy, relaxed pace. Take 30 seconds rest between swims. Get your times. You can swim any stroke, or IM. On the way down the pyramid, pick up the pace so that your times are faster than on the way up. The idea is to get a long warmup before you start to crank it up.
