Do distance swimmers spend less time w/kicking workouts
Former Member
Just curious if sprinters spend more time kicking as a percentage of their overall workouts compared to distance swimmers? Can and do distance swimmers have to spend less time?
Totally agree. And I'll admit when I'm writing my own workouts and have to squeeze them into an hour I rarely kick more than about 500 yards.
Stay away from Mesas the nexct two weeks! Interesting timing of this thread as this week we started a two week "kicking" boot camp! Goal is to average about 1000yds per workout....that 10 minute kick for distance set went over real well with our Tri's by the way!
BUT...I will say that the majority of those folks who train with us have accepted the fact that we train all 4 strokes and kick...a lot...and maybe the biggest issue for them is I never tally yardage!!
