Except for an uptempo 800 meters in the water, this day is mostly recovery for tomorrows long ride on the Computrainer.
AM Workout: 2200 meter swim
1x500 Warmup
1x800 Uptempo aerobic Freestyle Swim
4x200 Freestyle Swim with Fins - easy and untimed
1x100 Warmdown
The 800 meter set was done in 12:08, which is a 3:02 pace per 200 or 1:31 pace per 100. Good set. The 200s were focused on slipstreaming through the water. In essence, the fins enable any swimmer to go faster, magnifying any drag that happens as a result of flaws in ones stroke. The enhanced drag will be noticeable to the swimmer and will give the swimmer a better chance to identify his/her flaws and will try to correct them. Fins are one of the more important swim toys I use to correct my stroke.
