This practice is from February 22, 2004. Obviously we've got some IMers. www.dynoswim.com/freestyleFrenzy.php

We are too critical of coaches he is probably asking them so he can get an idea of how the kids think, if he had asked me when I was ten I would have said wrap my legs with hot towels and have a warm shower. That is how I do a premeet warm up now.

Another point. Why is a coach assigning somehting like this to a 10 year old. That's awfully young.

Not to get off track on your thread, but where the heck is the coach!?!

Here is one clubs idea of a premeet warmup I believe it is a little too much www.centennial.k12.mn.us/.../meetwarmup.html

Apparently, the coach wanted to see what the swimmers thought a good warmup was and why. We whipped something together last night. 200 Easy 2x50 Front Kick/Swim, 2x50 Back Kick/Swim 4x50 IM Order Drill/Swim 200 Free 4x50 Free Sprint 100 Easy Apparently this was the longest/hardest of the bunch. At the other extreme was; 4x25 Free 2x100 IM I am not sure what can be extracted from all this, but it was a fun excercise. The coach is going to discuss some of them at Dryland on Monday.
