We've also emailed you a copy, so it's saved if you want it on your phone at the pool. If it hasn't landed in a few minutes, check your promotions tab or spam folder.

Grab whichever level you want — you can always drop back or step up after the week 1 test.

Beginner

You can swim 50m without stopping and want to build to a 600m nonstop swim. Roughly 1.4–2.1km a week across three sessions.

Finishes with: a timed 600m continuous swim.

Not sure which one?

Don't guess, and don't pick on ego. Ability sets your pace, weekly volume sets your level. Download the one that matches how much you swim now, do the week 1 test, and move if the numbers say so.

Kit that doesn't quit mid-set

Eight weeks is a lot of chlorine. Our swimwear is cut from recycled ocean plastic with UPF 50+, built to hold its shape for a full season rather than one good summer.
