Cheating at practice?

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.

  • Guilty as charged. For me it is using Paddles and Bouy or as of today Fins. Unfortunately I am between 2 lanes speed wise. I am too fast for the group holding the 1:40 base but can barely make the 1:20 base interval. I tried to move my lane to 1:30 but there is only one other person who can handle it and he is not always there. Since lanes were so crowded today I opted to move up to the 1:20 group and add fins. Basically I am just not trying to make waves. Donna
