All athletes are different and everybody requires different amounts of rest between workouts. Depending on workout intensity, frequency and the athlete's conditioning.

Studies have proven that athletes show best results with at least 1-2 rest days a week. If you are one of those athletes that find it hard to sit on the sofa a whole day resting, then going for a swim on a rest day, can be very beneficial.

Swim between 1km and 2.5km depending on fitness level. Remember this is not a race! It's a rest day where you hold a nice consistent pace with your focus on a good stretch and relaxed breathing.
