Just wondering what folks are working on in their training or to prepare for meets this upcoming SCY season. I'm always interested in what people are doing and why.
For me, in an ideal world, I intend to work on:
improving my SDKs off turns
improving my free and *** technique
doing more strength and core work
increasing DPS
doing more race pace work throughout the season
swimming a 100 fly in SCY and SCM for the first time
taking some time off my 100 IM; I've been stuck in a rut
doing a fast 100 back this year; didn't get around to it last year
I'm working on making my final 15 months in the 30-34 age group good ones, to prove to people that being at the end of the age group doesn't mean you should just roll over and let the young'ins win everything.
I think I will enjoy my first year in the 35-39 age group (also my first year back in the pool after 13 years away from swimming) without having to worry about you or Roque Santos reminding me that I'm really not that good.:p I will also focus on swimming as fast as I did in high school, which I hope to accomplish through better technique, weight training (which I didn't do in high school), better flexibility and a better diet (but MUCH shorter workouts:D).
