Swim Plateau & Open Water Confidence Breakthrough: From 2:33 to 1:47 Min / 100 Yards

Stuck at 2:35 pace with sinking legs? Not confident in open water? Worried about your next triathlon race coming up? Carlos was too. He’s a single dad of 3. Once weighed 350 lbs. And swimming was his weakest sport. But that didn’t stop him. ✅ He finished his first full Ironman swim in 1 hour 34 minutes, even though 2.4 miles was the longest distance he’d ever swum at the time. Then, just 3 months later… 🔥 He swam 8.5 miles around Mackinac Island, solo and self-supported, with total confidence. 📌 During Training: Only 2 open water workouts 98% pool-based training using Faster Freestyle Formula No in-person swim coaching All while still running, cycling, and lifting weights 🔥 Not only he gained endurance, he recently held a 1:47 pace on a 700-yard TT, and now crushes 1:30–1:40 pace on shorter intervals, with ease. If you’ve been logging laps, grinding through drills, but still feel slow, stuck, or unprepared for race day... This episode will show you exactly how athletes like Carlos unlock massive gains, even when time, coaching, and open water are limited.
