Hey, just here to ask a few questions before my swim meet tonight, I've noticed something. When I went my recent best time this past week, my first 50 was completely relaxed and my closing 50 was strained. I went 8 seconds slower during the second 50.
Is it possible that slowing down my stroke and making myself move through the water cleaner, more of a streamline?
I've been trying it in practice but I'm really having troubles finding the sweet spot in terms of stroke count to pull strength, and how I should position myself to produce the least drag.
I would really appreciate some help with this guys, I want to drop my time. :)
For reference, I currently go a 1:09.07 in my 100y Breastroke, I know it's slow but i'm still in highschool. My 50y Breaststroke is roughly a 30 flat, I have yet to break that mark.
My father is the one that pointed this out, I raced someone that went a 1:07 while I was in the pool and he stroked much less than me, I was turning over at a painful rate and he was almost relaxed.
Tell me, how do I fix this? Thanks a lot guys, I love this forum. :)
