Working on Kicking
Working on Kicking
It was a rough training weekend, just couldn't seem to find motivation in the pool. Both Saturday and Sunday was a typical 3,000 yard workout however both days were comprised of a bunch of slow swimming. The best I could muster in a few fast sets were 100's Free on the 57.xx and 100's Back on the 1:00.xx. I feel a little run down but without good reason. I haven't hit the weights hard at all and have had some more reasonable work hours. I did however complete my first 50 underwater in a long time. I don't think I've done 50 meters underwater since college. We used to swim a set of 6x50's on the (go when ready) underwater with mono-fins. Yesterday I did 50 yards underwater with a flipturn. There was really no reason for it, I had been working on some underwater kicking and figured I would give it a shot.
I'm going to try and make it to the Grand Haven meet next weekend. I've never attended the meet, simply because it's almost 3 hours away. We shall see. A few friends are attending so I may as well.
