A Big Upgrade Packed With New Features

For version 2 of the SS Coaching System, we decided to rename the system "The Guru" to reflect its intelligent nature and give the system a little bit more identity. Version 2 is a significant upgrade in nearly every department, offering everything from version 1 plus a whole host of new features:

	A complete over-haul of the interface to make the system easier to use, particularly on smart phones.
	The introduction of much more intelligence into the system - for instance the sophisticated 'Goal Setter'. Tell the guru about your key race or goal and he will lay out a swim-by-swim plan to take you from now until the big day.
	The introduction of two price points. The standard version costs just £1.99 / US$2.99 / AU$3.99 a month offering you all of our essential coaching content including all of our drills, elite swimmers, stroke fault fixers and our inspiring Learn To Swim Program. The extensive PRO version for £9.99 / US$15.99 / AU$19.99 includes all of our training plans, The Virtual Squad, Swim Type system, goal setting engine, Catch Masterclass and training analysis tools!
	A brand new version of the Swim Smooth Learn To Swim Program. Can't swim a lap? Not for much longer! Let the Guru inspire you and show you how to become the swimmer you always wanted to be.
	Extensive new training logging and analysis features, letting you see your swim fitness developing and how to keep it moving things forwards. And if you're a Training Peaks user, we calculate an accurate sTSS score for every swim workout for you.
	As mentioned last week on the blog, we've included the introduction of CSS tweaking, a brilliant way of tracking and developing your swim fitness over time. Always swim at the perfect speed for maximum improvement!
	Extensive new training plans for pool only swimming and open water events of less than 5K, 5K and 10K distances. Oh, we've added some special short "lunch-time" sessions too!
	The inclusion of the Swim Smooth Blog so you can read posts and follow links to Guru content without leaving the system.
