Sunday swim i wrote out a set with some long intervals and lots of drill work, as I havent done any for ages.
Anyway got to pool late and only had an hour left, some woman and her daughter were nearly drowning in the deep end, life guard dove in, the other one ready to leap.... managed to get them to the wall, both of them none swimmers with 1 noodle between them ! DER !
anyway then it was continuous over taking for me so gave up on the main sets and just did as much as possible plus lots of drills.
Anyway - Have you done one arm drills before ? I havent.
A couple of my sets were;
5 x 100 - FC Drills ( 25 catch/25swing(straight arms like a windmill)/25 fists/25 1 arm)
5 x 50 Back Drills (25 work on roll and turn/25 1 arm)
I could really feel the weakness on my left arm when doing the 1 arm drills.
On the back i could feel the exact area in my trapizius. I definitely recommend these, especially if you ache on one side, like i do.
I am going to keep finishing up with left side drills for a few weeks and see if it makes a difference.
