Don't have much meet experience. Going to the yonkers meet next weekend.
If I swim a 200 free first event, then a 50, will it ruin my 100 free if I want a PB in the 100 free? Assume 20 minutes between the 200 and 50 and 30 minutes between the 50 and 100.
I hear you on that.
Warming up is an art, maybe even a science. If you save yourself, you will be too tight and not swim relaxed.
I remember I used to run a good 4x200 after I ran the 400. It loosened me up and took away the antagonistic muscles (the fighting of the muscle against it's own movement, usually not warmed up).
I never hear swimmers talk about antagonistic muscles....do they?
