This is the CCB Masters practice for 01/06/03
WARMUP: Approx. 500
10-minute swim, on your own, until all swimmers arrive.
The main set incorporates 3 drills, so we did a quick review of the 1st two drills and then taught
the 3rd drill, which was new to everyone. This was Screwdriver. You start in Hand-Lead on your back, then roll nose down. Keep your lead arm fully extended as you recover the other arm, slide it into the water and extend the hand BEYOND the hand that is already out there in front of you. Rotate your body as you make this super-extension. Then hold on to the water with your recoverying hand (the one that’s WAAAY out there in front of you) and pull yourself past that hand as you rotate onto your back. The hand that was originally extended in front of your body does nothing. It should still be extended when you finish the cycle. We did 4 X 25 of the drill until everyone was doing it correctly.
