Ande's 90 day thread got me wondering what everyone perceives as their strengths and weaknesses en route to this swimming nirvana. From both a physical and mental perspective. I guess mine are:
Strengths:
Physical: flexibility, some natural strength
Mental: stubborn and determined, willing to try new techniques/workouts
Weaknesses:
Physical: loosey goosey joints, gimpy left shoulder
Mental: really lazy about counting strokes or swim math, intrinsic dislike of freestyle > 50 yards
Strengths Physical-Very flexible ankles and knees.Good leg strength.
Mental-Always searching for new tips and techniques,excellent at psyching up for meets,sprinters mentality.
Weaknesses-Physical-bad back,shoulders and knees that are always one hard workout from injury.Sprinters mentality(I get bored swimming distance free and for me distance is anything over 200.)
