Swim Practice

3/22/2013

0 Comments

 
Dry Land strength training, then:
Warmup: 600 choice, then 8 x 50 faster
Kick: 200 breast
Drill: 8 x 25 breast
Sprint: 6 x 75 freestyle. FAST... for best average! (on 4:00 sendoff)
Swim: 10 x 100 free on 1:30 sendoff, negative splitting each swim.
Warmdown: 10 minutes drilling


Practice Notes:
     Gnarly practice. When I finished dryland training I was thinking, "How can I swim today, too?" Of course, this is the case after dryland most of the time and I eventually come good... as I did today. Once I got into it, I felt quite strong.
-- 75's on 4 minutes sendoff. :47, :47, :47, :47, :46, :46. Third laps were really hurting, but lactic burn was not too bad.
-- 10 x 100 on 1:30 sendoff. Times were all right on 1:13, except for the last two, which were 1:12 & 1:10. I thought I might die, but stayed strong throughout. Felt really strong, actually. Tried to hit the third lap hard on all of them. 
     Overall, pretty good practice, considering the end of a hard week and after a hard strength training session.
Really tired afterward.
