Do you (need to) do drills at all?

I personally never do drills that focus on a part of a full stroke, such as kicking alone, or one-hand stroke, etc. etc. If I want to correct/improve a certain aspect of the stroke, I do so in full stroke. How many out there share my opinion that separate drills are unnecessary, or even not helpful?

  • To each their own. I've found that doing drills and focusing on specific parts of my stroke helps me swim faster. I'll use it to either warm up, or as a means of recovery after a hard set or in between hard workouts. I also feel that if you don't view stroke work as having any value, then it wont. :bliss:
