Everyone seems to be doing "track starts" off the block now - one leg behind the other. How and why do you do this? I haven't been in a meet for a long time...back then everyone did the "grab start". Any instructions on doing a track start would be appreciated.
So how much time does the track start save you -v- the grab start? I'm assuming you've done timed swims with each and compared the times?
I have a picture of me vs. knelson that shows this difference. I may beat him off the start now, but his age group endurance program should (but won't :D ) kick my butt in the pool!!
