Hey outthere,
I'm a 16yrs old youth and I'm currently working on some workouts to help me improving my time on 50m ***.
Regardless of some people warning me about it, I am selfcoaching and it seems to work as I cut off my 50 *** time by at least 15 secs. (I started with 1:08s in early Dec and just reached the 52,5secs yesterday)
As I usually go to the pool twice a week I would like to create a set of 4 different workouts with different focuses (endurance, sprint, technique e.g.) to avoid a routine and continue on going down the time ladder.
I already made up two workouts but also they seem to work as I can complete them fairly well if some on really knows some thing about the subject could have a look over them for me and correct them as nessacary and also help me with the rest of the workouts.
Btw I recently read that doing a lot of breaststroke isn't that good for the knees. Is that right? Does it mean that I should do less breaststroke in my workouts?
Thanks for ya help

Also many world class breaststrokers are using a fly type pull instead of a scull out and scull in.
Wayne:
What does this mean? I've seen some of Glenn Mills videos on the "wide" pull and at the catch it looks very much like a fly pull, beyond shoulders with palms turn out to side (no doubt done through the "hunch" that you mention) but how does the pull resemble fly? Is it more backward than the "traditional" *** pull? If so then how does one avoid getting caught up before the arm recovery?
Thanks
