There's a swim meet coming up in one and a half month's time, and i am planning to take on the 200m freestyle.
Can anyone help me specific on what drills and sets should i be focusing on?
And by the way i am training with weights too, following this program by jason lezak

I am on the speed training phrase now though.
I am also doing the 3-3-3 drill swimspire recommended me and some finger drag catch up, but hope for some sets and other drills
Good grief...... the 200 fly?! Surely you are kidding. That event is a nuclear bomb waiting to happen. Either you are born a 200 flyer or you avoid it like the plague.
REAL MEN race the 200 fly
smart men watch it!

Our main set from last night (with 1000m mixed warm up/prep) - SCM:
4x50 with 10s rest @ 200 RP
200 recovery
2 x100 with 15s rest @ 200 RP
200 recovery
50/100/50 with 10-15s rest @ 200 RP
200 recovery
2 x100 with 15s rest @ 200 RP
200 recovery
4x50 with 10s rest @ 200 RP
200 recovery
All on 4 minutes. It was tough - but the 200 recovery helps to keep the quality high.
And all this in one workout ??? Hard :applaud:
Agreed. In fact, for me I would say near impossible to hold 200 pace on all those broken swims.
