Swim Lesson #16

Bukit Jalil. 7/11/07
Coach Peh. Me 'n Michelle.

Warm-up: 6 x 100 = 600m

100m times varied 1:59-2:04-2:10. Faster than usual

Main Set:

800-600-400-200-200 = 2,200m

800 - 400 with buoy, 400 w/o
600 - 300 with buoy, 300 w/o
400 & 200's - alternate 100's with/w/o buoy

Towards the end my legs felt weak and useless as if they had shrunk. In fact it was because my body position had improved so my legs were just dangling behind me, more horizontally than before.

then...

8 x 25m hard with paddles = 200m

Good body rotation. Extra speed brought hips to surface = good!

Cool-down = 100m (breaststroke/crawl)

TOTAL = 3,100m.

Remember - stretch well, keep head and shoulders low.
