No warm-up lanes?

Former Member over 14 years ago

Has anyone tried using resistance bands as a warm-up substitution when warm-up lanes are unavailable?

Since I was out of the pool for 3 weeks due to an ankle sprain, I used stretch cords to mimic swimming. I can tell you that it got my heart rate up and I felt the muscles but it wasn't quite as good as a pool warm-up.

no, just move around a lot with all swim related parts involved.

Warm-Up lanes are required in Masters meets. See rule book 102.4.1. I don't think continuous warm-up is required at USA-S meets.
