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.
