Started off my swim workout by blowing up.
My time dropped to 4:05s for the 200 so I bagged the time swim and started to drill. All the favorites for the drills-- fist gloves, pull boay and even fist gloves with the pull boay, handpaddles and flippers. I think that was the first time I used every trick in my bag . . . . swim bag that is.
By the end of my drills I put all the toys away and did some old fashioned kick drills on my back, which I have not done without flippers too often.
I did 4x200 after the drills and for some reason was going a little faster than I usaully do. 50 sec instead of 51-52. I wonder if I had to kick harder on the finless drills, which caused me to kick harder on the interval swim. I will have to do some more finless drills and check out my hypothesis.
