In the finals of the 1500 at Worlds, I noticed that all of the swimmers were breathing on the first stroke coming out of their turns instead of taking a pull with the deeper arm and breathing on the second stroke. Any thoughts?
It could be worse, I yell at my swimmers not to breathe off the walls and they noted I breathed off every wall on my 500 and 1650 in Greensboro. Oh, that went over like a pregnant pole vaulter with them. That dang oxygen is addictive.
For my first practice after Canadian Nats, I did part of the "Ode to Geek" workout from PWB, and yes, I did breathe first right off the turns. Air is very necessary.
Pregnant Pole Vaulter - something to look for, that would be a sight! :applaud:
