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? :)

  • Correct. Pull on your stomach and rotate to your back, pull on your back and rotate in the same direction to bring you back to your stomach. Then repeat the sequence in the opposite direction (i.e., ccw if you started in a cw direction). Here's a video of someone swimming corkscrew: ZCKrz-yFA0A The difference in my drill is you switch the rotation direction atter each front-back-front series.
