the order for IM is
fl bk br fr
but if you could change up the order of the IM
there are 24 stroke order combinations to choose from
They are:
fl bk br fr IM order
fl bk fr br
fl br bk fr
fl br fr bk (i think this is the fastest order)
fl fr bk br
fl fr br bk
bk fl br fr medley order
bk fl fr br
bk br fl fr (this is probably the slowest order, because you get no flip from fly to free)
bk br fr fl (this might be the most painful order)
bk fr fl br
bk fr br fl
br fl bk fr
br fl fr bk (tyler thinks this is the fastest order)
br bk fl fr
br bk fr fl
br fr bk fl
br fr fl bk
fr fl bk br
fr fl br bk
fr bk br fl
fr bk fl br
fr br bk fl
fr br fl bk
If normal stroke rules apply:
Which order is the fastest?
Why?
Which order is the slowest?
Why?
Which order is most painful?
if you moved breastroke to first or second in order would breastrokers have less of an advantage in IMs than they do with the traditional order?
a pretty easy work out would be
24 x 100 IM doing each stroke order sequence once
More challenging might be
24 x 200 IM doing each stroke order sequence once
seriously challenging would be
24 x 400 IM doing each stroke order sequence once
... My first choice would be ***-fly-free-back. The more time underwater in evil the better! And I like having my best/easiest stroke last. Easier to breathe when you need oxygen too.
Agreed. *** is the slowest so you want the dive there. Back last so you can breathe, (but on the 200 IM the final turn would hurt).
