  • Thanks chlorini That was not lengthy at all:wiggle: I am at the point where I can do a 50 fly and not hurt to bad and I am constantly working on backstroke. Do you think that doing things like 250 im's (75fly/75back/50br/50fr) might help or are there other ways to do sets that "target" the last 50 fly and 1st 50 back...I was doing 150's today that were 75fly/50back/25br... I think that you are right on target with your assessments as I tend to take the 1st 50fly as 'hard as I can' then DIE on the 2nd 50 and use the 1st 50back to recover....as for the idea of a 200 fly...wow:lmao: I think that is a good idea BUT I am a little far away from that right now....thanks for the input and I am trying to add more fly/free kicking to my workouts as that is a weak point for me. Any good fly drills would be appreciated. Thanks again!
