Swimming Set of the Week - October 16, 2009

If you choose easy sendoffs and take too much rest, this week's set becomes just another set.   But if you step up and challenge yourself, this will be one of those sets that gets ***** next to it in your workout log.   

Choose one stroke and one kick and stick with it through the entire set.  On the 50s swim, choose a sendoff that you can make, but that gives you only 6 to 8 seconds rest.   For the 50s kick, use your swim sendoff plus 10 seconds.   Between the swim and kick segments, take no more than 30 seconds extra rest.
