Hehe ok Yeah I'm gasping in my turns on ***. and in a 200Y event there's 7 of them. I am sure I am losing seconds in my push off and glide b/c of conditioning.
I am going to get into the reace prep work again tomorrow...Warm up then
1 x 200 (my mentality set)
7 x 100 on 4:00 (working my way to 10 reps)
4 x 50 on 2:00
4 x 25 on 1:00
I am curious if anyone thinks after the above workout, I should do 10 reps of say swimming 2 or 3 strokes to the turn and pushing off and repeating without rest or something like that. Is that a good way of building some stamina for that particular part of the race or am I doing enough?
I read somewhere about vertical pushoff in 7ft water but my pool goes from 6ft to the dive pit.
Whatever happens I can only race with whatever I have in 3 weeks.

I thought gasping at *** turns was normal. :dunno:
Hehehe
It could be due to the last vestige of my cough/cold. I felt very breathless and lacking power for the push off... I hope to see something better tonight.
