Hi all!
So I've noticed during my workouts, I tend to blast through my warmup laps, which makes for sore arms and out-of-breath/slower swimming later. Any tips and tricks to get into the midset of swimming slower during warmups? :)
Getting into a lane with 8-9 other people is a sure remedy! :D
I think we have all been there before, trying to take off right from the start and not allowing our bodies to get ready for the main sets to come. I try to think more about technique and "lengthening" out my stroke during warmups to help with keeping the throttle under control. You might find that throwing in swim/kick/pull/swim portions will help you to keep from going too fast as well.
