Approximately 1500 + 200This set will start easy and end hard. You are doing a set – 3 X 50 – several times and with a tighter rest interval each time. Take a short break (about 30 seconds) between the sets to recoup and prepare. Your goal is to swim the set approximately 10 times until you can’t make the sendoff. So figure out where you might have to bail out, and count back 10 sets from that and that’s your starting point. Have fun! You can do any stroke or combination of strokes (e.g., breast down/free coming back) so long as you make the sendoff.The goal is not to blast your way through the initial sets. Your goal is to conserve your energy until you really need it at the end.3 X 50 on 1:153 X 50 on 1:123 X 50 on 1:093 X 50 on 1:053 X 50 on 1:023 X 50 on :593 X 50 on :553 X 50 on :523 X 50 on :493 X 50 on :453 X 50 on :423 X 50 on :393 X 50 on :353 X 50 on :323 X 50 on :29200 EZ recovery, choiceMAIN SET #2: 900With fins.Beginner lanes can substitute dolphin kick on your back for butterfly.
