Sure, fins can be used for all strokes, but today, let's just focus on using them for two types of freestyle.

Got championships? This week's set can help you taper, but can also be a good anaerobic set at any point in the season.

In honor of D-Day this week (June 6th), we're honoring the greatest of all Double Ds... Dave Denniston, AKA Davo, who posted this Test Set several years ago. It's become a favorite test set for us, especially around taper time when we're trying to get a feel for what race pace feels like.

Here's a pretty short practice that's a bit small-group oriented. In other words, you're going to need a partner to complete this one.

Training - Water Polo Block

Working the inner thigh for breaststroke, as well as developing quick, explosive power for starts, turns, and general racing is always a great idea, but sometimes tough to do in our sport.

A couple sets featuring pulling and kicking, and starting to focus on raw speed. Remember: When you're doing sets with a speed focus, don't swim the slow part too fast.
