Hi everybody,
first of all I'm glad to know you.
I'm an italian master and I'd like to improve my sprint.
My strokes are:
Free (50 & 100), Fly (50 & 100), IM (100 & 200)
I've a problem every time I've a race.
I can't mantain my speed till the end of the race.
For instance, 50 mt free. 35/40 mt are ok, then I go down so quickly.
Same thing with 50 mt Fly.
My 100 mt free are: 60/70 mt ok, then ... boom :-)
I really would like to change this way to race.
Do you have some suggestions to improve my stroke?
Some good workout to do ?
Just some information to understand what kind of swimmer I am:
- I swim 3/4 times per week, 1 hour per time.
- Some personal best: 50 free (27"50) ; 50 fly (30"00) ; 100 free (1'02"50).
Thanks a lot in advance
Giampiero
P.S: I'm sorry about my english :-)
In addition to feedback on approach and conditioning, sometimes watching yourself on video can illustrate simple mistakes, and uploading it would probably be the most effective route. I learned to swim as a total non-swimmer in my 40's, from tips, feedback, and reading (haven't been coached).
You definitely have the engine with a sub 28s 50M, how is your 200?
