'Pull' Drill - Focus will be on learning to 'catch' the water with your forearm and pull yourself through the water. If you feel your lats (the muscles under your arm pits that go down the side of your back) engage, then you are starting to get it. If your shoulders are tired, then you are still using too much shoulder and not enough lats. Kick (Regular) Kickboard Kick or Kick on Back with hands over head, fingers locked.

April 25

Bike
  • 1h 00m
  • 22.00 miles
  • -----

WU: 10 minutes,
MS: Ride 4x8' at Tempo effort (Zone 3) with a 2' Zone 2 recovery.
CD: 10

Run
  • 45m
  • 6.00 miles
  • -----

Easy run warmup for 15-20' - Drills are to be done on a soft surface; even grass or packed dirt for example - Concentrate on exaggerated good form in each of the exercises as opposed to speed. - Drill distance is generally 50-60m - Recovery is an easy jog/walk back, not a run.

Sample Workout
1. High knees
2. Butt kicks
3. Skipping
4. Karaoke/grapvines 1-2x each direction for 50-60yards
5. High knee>>happy feet 2-3x 50 yards - go from high knees to very fast cadence and back to high knees
6. Strides These bring it all together. Fast, but smooth running for 80-100m. Keep the distance such that you are running notably fast, but you maintain form and good running sensations throughout.

'Pull' Drill - Focus will be on learning to 'catch' the water with your forearm and pull yourself through the water. If you feel your lats (the muscles under your arm pits that go down the side of your back) engage, then you are starting to get it. If your shoulders are tired, then you are still using too much shoulder and not enough lats.
