IM stuff (or pick a focus) with Chris and Liz
warm up:
600 choice
(600/600)
drill set:
8×75, 2 each stroke
odds: 50 kick/25 swim
evens: 50 drill/25 swim
drills:
Fly: 3-2-1 countdown drill (which works best in short course pools). 3 strokes left side/3 right/2 strokes left/2 right/1 stroke left/1 right/full stroke the rest of the way. Focus on kick on hand entry, and a larger kick on hand exit. Hold that rhythm all the way through the length.
Back: 2 stroke Rhythm drill. Focus on core engagement to extend and set the catch, and take the pull all the way to the end.
Breast: Alternate strokes with a breast stroke kick and a dolphin kick. Use the hips to drive the arm extension forward.
Free: Single arm drill. Odd lengths breathe to your off arm side. Even lengths breathe to your pulling arm side. Focus on stroke symmetry and balance.
