We have a very important meet coming up this weekend, and somehow, me not being a sprinter and all I have got myself on a couple of relay teams. It is the big end of season meet followed by the team social, so I need to put up my best efforts in front of the age groupers and their coaches.
Anyway I'd appreciate some advice on takeovers and how to blast a 25yd length.
The events I am swimming are the backwards (feet first) relay and the beach-ball relay. Thanks! :D :chug:
I agree. I can go pretty fast feet first over head sculling. Just make sure your chest is up high. There is also feet first with your hands near your hips sculling, too.
Breaststrokers, such as myself, LOVE feet first. We definitely choose on the back, with the head back (your feet will find the wall), sculling like crazy.
Did a Long Course workout with a Raleigh group several years ago, and was one of the few who did not object to the feet first drill part of the workout.
