WU: 300 swim & then 300 drills.
MS:
8x100 @75% effort. Rest is 20".
Then 8x100 on your best average of the set above (if you hit 1:40 avg. then that is your goal on this set). Rest is 10".
Next set is 400 pull with paddles.
CD: 200
(*) B.P.A. = Best Possible Average, this will be one benchmark set that you can do once every three weeks. The idea is to record the 8, 100's and average them. Keep the record and you should be slightly faster the next time.
