WARMUP: 400
400 your choice, on your own
MAIN SET: 1200 beginner lane/2000 other lanes + 200
Rest interval is approx. 1 minute on the 400s, :45 on the 300s, :30 on the 200s, :15 on the 100s.
We had two focus points during the set. One was flip turns. Many of our swimmers are just learning to do flips, so the goal was to do as many as possible today — and to especially try to do the ones going from a freestyle length to a backstroke length. Those who can do flips, focus on distance off the wall. The focus point during the pull (assuming open turns) is to not hook the feet as you’re pulling the feet up for the turn. Try to point the toes and overlap the feet slightly as you pull into the tuck.
