Brendan Hansen - Meet Warm-Up

Posted by Glenn Mills on Jun 21, 2011 07:15AM (9,279 views)

While in Santa Clara, we had the opportunity to talk to our friend Brendan Hansen about how to warm up at a crowded meet.

We decided to use this as our Drill of the Week, since it's great advice for all competitive swimmers.

Enjoy

Brendan Hansen, racing

sprinter	Responded Jun 22, 2011 08:19AM Two years ago at Nationals there was girl who complained that the pool is crowded.... there were only 4 people in the 50m lane. :D :D :D This is how crowded our pool is during practice... in a warm up for a race it is worse hehe. Otherwise, yes, I agree with his warm up. :)
swmgrl	Responded Nov 15, 2011 06:34PM Hardest part seems to be finding a lane where ppl are doing the same pace as you want to be doing. Also, if you're doing breaststroke under water, will ppl see you and not cause a collision. Can be tricky. Good advice about heart rate, which I will pay more attention to. Thanks!
