Does anyone have experience with stretchcordz short belt (or long belt) when lap swimming is impossible? I swim at the local Y which has a sorry lap swim schedule, including no lap swimming on Saturdays, can you believe it? I have considered using stretchcordz for continuous swimming in place during rec swim, at which time they have a rope across the width of the pool. Would appreciate suggestions.
In 199something I WAS a breaststroker and then hurt my knee trying to snowboard! I was suddenly a backstroker. I couldn't do walls so I did the normal sets (in my own lane) with everybody else. If we were doing 50s I would take 30 strokes, 100s 70 etc.. I added more strokes than I would actually take because I didn't have any turns or pushoffs to start.
I swam life best times in the 100 and 200 (1:03 and 2:16) at Nationals. It really was all stretchcordz. I swear by 'em. Plus, they're also great for tapering.
