Main Set Wednesday - November 18, 2010
LOTS of arm use this morning... yes, that means pulling.
There may have been two main sets this morning, one swimming, and one kicking. It really depended on how you listened to the coach on each.
Depending on which group you were in, this was either a stroke or freestyle set. Not quite overdistance if you chose freestyle, but definately overdistance if you're a stroke swimmer.
Really tired today, so our coach gave us a pretty easy set that we could work on staying long and smooth.
This had some "fun" equipment, with fun in quotes because how much fun can paddles with weights strapped to them be?
Recovery turned into just a bit more intensity than we planned, but it's fun going faster when you decide it's OK.
I do enjoy Wednesday's, as it's turning into the recovery day. A short, short-course practice in the middle of the day.
Just pure pain on this one... and it's now 6 hours later and I'm still sore.
Sorta fun this morning, but with still being tired from traveling over the weekend, this set was certainly challenging.
We are a group of swimmers who swim really fast, and like to help others learn how to reach their competitive potential in the area of professional swimming.
