Swim Workout

Here is a GREAT swim workout to get you prepared for your next Triathlon:

WARM UP: 2x100 nice and easy (10 sec. rest)

WORKOUT: 3x100 drills; 100 ea. (15 sec. rest)

Pointed Toe Drill - hold kick board with arms straight out in front of body. Flutter kick with toes pointed. Try to kick from hips not knees.

Floppy Foot Drill - hold kick board with arms straight out in front of body. Flutter kick with floppy feet. Try to kick from hips not knees.

Kick and Breathe Drill - hold kick board with arms straight out in front of body and hands holding on to bottom part of board. As you flutter kick (with floppy foot) incorporate your arm stroke. Arms need to move continuously during drill. Feet should kick faster than your stroke. Breath every four strokes. (this will be difficult but will help increase your lung capacity.)

8x50 moderate speed (20 sec. rest)

COOL DOWN: 2x100 nice and easy (10 sec. rest)

Total: 1,100 meters!!!
