Timed Finals posted a great article on swim sprints. A reader wrote in with a question and one of the answers given was rather clever:
- Colin M. answers: For what it’s worth, in swimming 50s with my TI stroke, I focus on getting more out of each pull, instead of turning the arms over faster. I make sure I complete the entire stroke, and also focus on the front quadrant swimming part. If I want to increase my speed, I do so by letting my hips set the pace. Since focusing on this TI stuff, I actually swim faster by taking fewer strokes, and making those count.
Don't forget to RSVP for the SCAQ lactic workouts with Bonnie and Erik at LMU this weekend.
The 17thman just added your link to his blog so always on the lookout for more devoted swimming blogs I popped by to take a look. Excellent work - I think it's a great site you've got here!
