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? :)
I'm not sure how you guys manage it, but my stroke count in free is 25 in a 25 yard pool (I'm 5'5"). Slowed down, I can reduce it to 21. With flippers on, I can manage 17. How are you managing to enlongate your stroke so much?
I'd say have your coach look at your stroke. Some things that helped me reduce my count were various drills, catch-up, one-arm free, fingertip drag, close-fist swimming, and kicking on each side while practicing body roll. Good luck.
