Swimming log printable with lap counter and 8 week training plan

This swimming log printable gives every pool or open water swim a home, keeps count of your lengths, maps out training and cheers on each new PB. Inside the 12 undated pages you will find a per-session log, a weekly overview, a lap counter, a month of distance boxes, an 8-week plan and a table of best times for each stroke. The PDF downloads instantly in US Letter and A4.

Use yards, meters or miles, whichever your pool or lake calls for.

How this swimming log printable supports your training

Write each swim in sections: warm-up, drills, the main set, kick work and the cool-down, each with its own distance, time, effort score and feeling. The lap counter lets you fill one circle per length, so your mind can stay on your stroke.

A month of distance boxes shows your total creeping toward your target. You can map an eight week build, collect drills for all four strokes and record each new best the day you set it.

Who this swimming log printable is for

• Lap swimmers and grown-up beginners who like seeing progress length after length
• Club and masters swimmers who plan their sets and chase faster times
• Open water swimmers and triathletes training toward a race
• Anyone whose count has slipped away halfway through a swim

Design and printing

• No dates, so any week can be week one
• Fits yards, meters or miles
• Clip it to a board, keep it in a binder or have a print shop spiral bind it
