Tall Pauls Favorite Workouts and/or Sets

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 400IM 100 kick for time 400 negative split (faster than 2nd 400 of the 800, get 200 split) 1:00 rest 5 x 100's @ 1:15 200IM 100 kick for time (different stroke) 200 negative split (faster than 2nd 200 of 400) 4 x 100's @ 1:10 100IM 100 kick for time (different than first two)

    Print out, dampen the page and put on a kick board! Remember that the intervals I give is for our "animal lane", there are usually2-3 additional interval options. The descend into a fast 200IM isn't as much about time but ultimately effort and the change in stroke/muscle groups within a set is brutal (for a reason! :)) In my prime I could make the animal lane, but I am now a domesticated house pet. I have altered or modified everything to my intervals. It works out well when you guys are going meters (and I still have to modify).
