I was reading an article that was telling me how I should use some drills to improve my reactions on the starting block. Just what type of drills are these?

One thing for starts, get a beeper that closely matches the sound of the starting beeper. Saying go DOES NOT prepare you for the sound of the starting beep.
I bought a hand held beeper that has a flash, beeper and stop watch built in.
Of course, it also helps to have a pool that actually lets you use the starting blocks during at least some of your swim wokouts. ;-)
