After watching myself on the videos from the swim meet and seeing my flaws, I have been back in the water and tried to correct my mistakes. Fixing my flaws will take a lot of patience. I am using muscles that I have never trained regularly, and I feel imbalanced and awkward gliding through water.
In the next few weeks, I am planning on adding few drills in between main sets and few long distance sets to improve swimming efficiency.
Warm up:
- 400 freestyle
- 3 x 150; 50 1-arm swim, 50 catch-up, and 50 long strokes
- 200 flutter kicks
Main sets:
- 4 x 50 freestyle - build up sets: 1:10, 1:05, 1 minute, 55 seconds
