Are there masters swimmers "cheating" at practice?
Like:
Leaving early?
One handed touches on ***/fly?
Using pull buoys?
Kicking whatever they want despite what the workout says?
Swimming free on designated "stroke" sets?
Just wondering. I'm heard some grumbling about the leaving early stuff.
I think you are all wrong to regard such behaviour as 'cheating'.
Instead it should be viewed as adapting the circumstances to suit the needs of the individual.
Isn't that a far more sensible, mature approach, indicative of masters swimming?
Agreed!!!
I sometimes cheat myself by not sticking to my pre-designed workout. I always consider it adapting to the circumstances.
Although ocassionally I feel like I can handle a dose of something extra, so I though that in.
So it all balances out.
