Underwater dolphins and FINISHES! |
|
|
More dolphin kick without fins...and, yes, finishes for sure. Maybe put some towels over the wall clocks and get some of the Finis underwater pace clocks :) |
|
|
drills, balance exercises, drills, underwater swimming/ drills, drills, quality kicks, drills, qulity pulls, drills and everything what's fun :O) PS: this is always my program when recovering from an injury |

Work, work, work. The season in France starts in September so, I'll use the weeks to come to work on technic and core strenghtening. Also I'll continue working on my working aerobic background. |

I'm thinking about getting one of those snorkels. |

Seeing the excitement of a big race, I decided I want a long term plan preparing for the World Master's in Sweden in 2010. This means I'll have to increase the time I spend on dryland training and focus on stroke details. Just what everyone said - my first thing will be to work on finishes and on kicking, especially off the wall. It appears doing these things right will bring immediate results. |

I became quite interested in dolphin kicks since the beginning of the Olympics and now I am improving quite well. But my main exercise is focused on balanced breathing and no breather drills. |

|
Gotta work on my turns now that long course season is over. In the short course pool, there is no way to hide my disastrous flips. |
|
|
STARTS-SWIM-TURNS-FINISHES!!!!!!! |
|
|
more drylands, massages and electro-stimulation like Dara... |
|
|
KJ... shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... |
|

I don't really know right now what's next for me. i got my sectional cut at a meet i was at recently and my coaches are still deciding whether or not to move me up to the National team full time or just half of the time. |
|
|
That's exciting news, rscswimmer! I don't see why what KJ says about Dara such a big secret? I've heard the same and have been training on the Power Plate ever since. |
|
|
I was just kidding... KJ is my bro and I was teasing a bit. She was shown using that thing on one of the interviews. |
