Dry land strength training, then...
Warmup: 800 yards, changing stroke each length
Kick/Drill: 16 x 25 fly with fins
odds: dolphin kick on back
evens: whole str
Main Set: Pull: 4 x 600 free, steady but strong (:30 rest between swims)
Sprint: 6 x 25 FAST... not freestyle (:30 rest)
Warmdown: 10 minutes drilling
Practice Notes:
Interesting practice. Halfway through the 600's I was feeling really good, strong, working them hard. I thought to myself, "I'm going to do all of these in under 8:00! At the 300 mark of third 600 I was at 3:50, right on my goal. Then my arms simply gave out. Second 300 was 4:50, and I was still trying. Weird to simply crap out in the middle of a set, when usually I get stronger. Times for the four 600's: 7:50, 7:50, 8:40, 8:30. Have not bonked like that in practice for quite some time.
