Sets for Breaststroke Training

I compete in all three breaststroke events and am looking for some training advice (specific training sets) for the 100 and 200 breaststroke.

    100 *** 25 breakstroke kick, with butterfly arms 25 *** 25 fly kick with breastroke arms (btw really good drill with zoomers) 25 break 50's / 75's 25 underwater breastroke pullouts no breath 25 breastroke or 25 sprint free or .... something to make your heart beat fast lots of splits / groin stretching to improve kick geometry powerlift squats with heavy weight to build quads for walls (stay away from deadlifts) again, STRETCH you legs knees and groin I'm always and advocate of breath control / hypoxic work for breastroke. esp in the 200 length... it will help your pullout distances and can win you races... it also allows you to control your stroke cadence instead of your lungs dictating your stroke length... goodluck.
