so yesterday i had a really tough training day. i don't know what it was, but i was feeling really sluggish and it was really hard to get through my workout. if you haven't noticed a trend, tuesdays and thursdays are my swimming days, so of course i had a date with the pool once again.
although i was feeling sluggish and i did think to cut it short a couple of times, i pushed myself through and finished the whole set. i also pushed myself to shorten my breaks after each lap and not take a break at all on some...just 50s (2 laps), but it's progress.
here's what i did yesterday:
Warm Up
300 L36x50 (choice drill,s) 10" RI
4x50 L5 15"RI
Concentrating on consistent stroke count
Main Set
3x50 L7 20"RI (G2=4x50 G3=5x50)
Try to maintain good technique with the speed
3x100 L5 15"RI (G2=4x100 G3=5x100)
Pick 3 techniques and concentrate on 1 for each 100 (balance, rotation, front quadrant, extension, power phase, exhaling completely under water, tempo, etc)
3x150 L5 15"RI (G2=4x150 G3=5x150)
Breathing every 3 strokes or if that is normal, every 3 onthe odd laps and every 5 on the even laps
3x200 15"RI (G2=4x200 G3=5x200)
Decend (the time for each 200 gets faster by 3-4 seconds)
Warm down
200 perfect
Totals: G1=2500 <~~THAT'S 100 LAPS!
