With some recent talk about coaches, accomodating to swimmers, and swimmers obeying coaches, I thought I'd post a poll.
So who is receiving coached workouts? Do you like him/her? Do you like his/her workouts? Do they pay you attention, criticize and advise, or do they like to sit and read, or flirt with other swimmers/lifeguards?
I am my own coach,mostly. I write my own workouts.Although I swim with a group sometimes I can rarely get anyone to do"that crazy breaststroke stuff".Also I do more sprints/longer rest than they like.The exception that makes it "mostly" is I have a coach friend who does underwater videos and I get her to tape and critique my stroke periodically.Also I get our team coaches to give me pointers at meets.
