IMers, We're Jacks & Jills of all trades
Fly back *** free
We gotta have speed but we gotta last to finish fast.
It takes strategy & conditioning.
We train equal amounts of all 4 or have a fatal flaw.
We try to make our worst stroke not so bad.
It's worked well for Ryan Michael Eric, Ariana Kirsty & Stephony

I'll try it over the weekend. Tomorrow, I'm going to try to improve my times on the fly set Karl suggested over on The Butterfly Lane before continuing on with my Fast Friday sprint workout.
I did a couple of those broken 200s today in my transition from warm-up to the main set (40 x 25 bk on :40). Went :47, :49, :49, :49 on the 4 x 50 fly on 1:00 (slower than I was a few months ago), then 100 bk recovery, then :38, :40, :40, :39 on 4 x 50 fr on :10r. But both add-ups are pretty good reflection of my SCY PRs in the 200 events (mid 3:10s in fly, high 2:30s in free).
The 40 x 25 bk set, was definitely goal pace for 200... no way I could do that many reps of 25 at 50 or 100 pace right now... I was right around :22 for most of the set (my short-term goal is to break 3:00 the next time I swim 200 back SCY).
