04/11/07 Gotta Love Breaststroke

Did this in a 23- or 24-yard pool.WARMUP: ~800With Zura Alpha fins:4 lengths dolphin4 lengths free4 lengths flutter4 lengths back4 lengths dolphin4 lengths free8 lengths EZ breast kick, various positionsMAIN SET: ~2100For all the kicking on this set, I used two Zura Alpha fins -- one on top of the other -- as a kickboard. This arrangement made me keep my face in the water, and I could work on getting into streamline after each kick. I'd recommend using a small kickboard or the Zura Sidekick kickboard or one of the triangular-shaped kickboards that encourage you to kick with your face in the water! 5 X 190 on 3:45 sendoff and with Tempo Trainer set at 1:75 for all 51st 4 are breast kick [3:25]5th one is breaststroke swim, keep the Tempo Trainer at 1:75 [3:00]4 lengths EZ freestyle recovery5 X 95 on 1:55 sendoff with Tempo Trainer set at 1:70 for all 51st 4 are breast kick [1:39 to 1:40]5th one is breaststroke swim, keep the TT at 1:70 [1:25]4 lengths EZ freestyle recovery10 X 48 on 1:00 sendoff with Tempo Trainer set at 1:65 for all 101 through 4 are breast kick [:49]5th is breaststroke swim, keep the TT at 1:65 [:40]6 through 9 are breast kick [:49]10th is breaststroke swim, keep the TT at 1:65 [:39]WARMDOWN: 25010 lengths EZ free and backTotal Yardage: ~3000
