I have heard that some Masters coaches are more interested in general fitness than speed.What is your experience? Do you feel that your coach prepares you to swim 50s and 100s?Is sprinting a regular part of practice at least once a week and if so do you do it as a main set or as an add on at the end?Do you do lactic acid sets?How much do you work on starts and turns?
"In order to swim fast one must swim fast."
Pause for a Zen moment...now ponder that pearl of wisdom..
I LOVE THIS THREAD...
Don't let it die until every USMS coach sees it or one of their swimmers forwards it for their coach to read!
By the way all of you distance swimmers, Dave Salo, whether you like him or not, notoriously calls his DISTANCE SWIMMERS - LONG SPRINTERS!!
I LOVE THAT SECOND to this thread since the thread impacts masters swimmers first.
