Our swimmers seemed to really like this set. One thing sets it apart from many of the sets we do -- the interval. Typically, I write a highly structured practice with everything tightly interval-controlled. This set had every swim @ ~:20 rest. This allowed the swimmers to feel less interval pressure and the freedom to just do a good job, pay attention to the clock, and challenge themselves rather than feeling dragged along by the set.
1st round backstroke, 2nd round breaststroke with changes to the drills so they were suitable for br.
Editor's note: Our goal for this year is to provide coaches around
the world with a free new idea or set EVERY DAY this year! Can you help
us reach that goal? Please send submissions to swimmingwizard@gmail.com.
