Thursday Workout

Here's one of my favorites that I've seen around the internet. The video is from the now defunct Floswimming.org, which was an amazing swimming website back in its time. The workout is a set that the Auburn Sprint Group did one afternoon, and it's gained infamy among swimmers and coaches in the know. I present to you the legendary "Auburn Gatorade Set."

Auburn Gatorade Set

Multiple rounds of:
Chug 20 fl oz of Gatorade (one normal sized bottle)
Sprint a 100 freestyle
Rest 3:00
Repeat with another Gatorade and sprint, and complete as many rounds as you can before puking.

I've done this once, and only made it through 3 100s (yeah yeah whatever)
Here's what it looks like:
