Our coach doesn't give specific times or workouts to use the snorkel. I love mine but I'm not sure when it's the best time to use it? I have been using it at the end in the pull sets but can it be effectively used in main cardio focused sets?
I use my snorkel for much of my warm up. With the snorkel I can go very slow if I want to to really concentrate on a particular movement.I also use it any time I am swimming freestyle at 200 pace or slower. I have twitchy shoulders and having the snorkel helps me keep balanced so I have less shoulder pain. I use it for all my kick sets as the body position is more like swimming than with a kick board is.
