Getting to travel as much as we do we get to "taste" a lot of workouts from clubs all over the country...plus on occasion I come up with something to toss at the workouts I coach.
For those lucky enough to swim with me Saturday (I'm coaching) here's the main set:
SCY
800 negative split (get 400 split) @1:00 rest
6 x 100's @ 1:20

400 negative split (faster than 2nd 400 of the 800, get 200 split) 1:00 rest

Paul, just for interest's sake, and also to shame myself into doing something (at last ) about my appallingly ineffective kick, what times did you do for the 200, 100 and 50m kicks?
I struggled to do those 12 x 50's on 1:10. On an all out 50 I can barely go 50 seconds. I didn't even attempt the 200 and 100 for time. I think I would have a real problem going under 5 mins for a 200m kick. I finished the rest of the workout though and my legs feel wasted now.
Also what did you mean by 25over/25 under? I just did them all with a board alternating free and fly.
