What do YOU need to do to have a major swimming breakthrough?"
I started this thread over in the work outs section which I think doesn't get as much traffic as the general discussion board
so here's the link
forums.usms.org/showthread.php
but my point is,
No matter what, the time between right now and your focus meet is going to pass, and the things you do to prepare for your meet is of the UTMOST importance.
the choices you make
the chances you take
swim hard in practice
rehearse racing
I want to read your story about your breakthrough.
Decide it starts today
that this season will be your best season EVER
What do you need to do to make this true?
Ande
i have an idea.
new rule. you can swim freestyle whenever you want in a race. that's faster and easier than breastroke or butterfly. yeah. good race.
oh wait! that wouldn't be fair. because you're not racing in the exact stroke as the other competitors. you wouldn't win fairly.
modifying the strokes is like cheating.
i agree with some girl, if you are too old to do butterfly, rules can change. for that age group. but it is ridiculous to think I could go to a race and lose to someone not doing the stroke "properly."
Maybe I'll ask the refs if pulling on the lane lines is okay to do during a race if my legs hurt.
