Two Grand Tempo

Brent Nichols

I wanted to share a workout using the Temp Trainer.  Following Coach Ryan Woodruff's idea on how to determine “sweet spot”, http://swimmingwizard.blogspot.com/2010/05/find-your-sweet-spot.html, I came up with this set to help me work on speed without losing control.

300 Warm up consisting of:

25 Fist swim

25 open hand

25 1 finger

25 open hand

25 2 finger
