I am looking at putting together a sheet for my new masters swimmers about all the different swimming terminology and acronyms coaches use on deck.
I will start with a few.... Please add as many as you can and I will re-post what I put together.
DPS - Distance per stroke
Rev IMO - Reverse Individual Medley Order
R Arm - Right Arm only
L Arm - Left Arm only
Inv K - Inverted Kick
Alternate Breathe - breathing pattern that consist's of equal number of breath's on the left side as the right, typically done in threes, breathe left, stroke three times, breathe right, stroke three times, repeat.

You always need to get clarification on "choice": I've had it mean anything but free or anything, including free, with "stroke" meaning free-free. In warmup, I would assume it included drill and pull unless told otherwise.
I agree with regard to the clarification! In warm up, I try to stay away from drills though kick and pull are fine for choice...
