Swim Practice

Dry Land Strength Training... then:

Warmup: 800-1000 choice
Kick: 300 breast
Drill: 6 x 25 back, focus on hip rotation
Main Set: 

     Swim 20 x 100, alternate IM & freestyle (on 1:45 sendoff): Focus on IM!!!
Warmdown: 10 minutes drilling



Comment: I worked the strength training hard and could feel it through the warmup and drilling. I was surprised and pleased that I stayed strong throughout the main set. I kept waiting for my arms to give out on me, but they were good to the end. I was able to maintain the 1:45 sendoff. I worked the IM's hard and they were all around 1:28, except the last, which was 1:23. The freestyle 100's were all around 1:17, except the last, which was 1:10. I worked them, too, but saved a little so I could maintain form for the IM's. My backstroke is feeling pretty good these days. I think I need two days of rest now. I'm interested to see how I feel over the weekend.
