04/11/04 20-Yard Pool Taper

WARMUP: 600
600 easy, alternating back, free, breast kick with no board

TETHER SET: 440 + 80
I usually like to do a tether set toward the end of practice, after I’m more warmed up and can do some hard sets to build up to race pace, but today I wanted to do more of a race-day simulation. On race day, I’ll do an EZ warmup, and then will have to go FAST without a lot of buildup.
9 X 40 (20 against the tether and 20 with tether assist)
1 X 80 tether
Focused on finishing each kick.
