Breanna and Fast Dave showed up for our swim tonight. (3400 yds in 70 min) Dave picked the workout tonight!!!
800 warm-up mixed 6X50 (45 sec) 3X500 (8:15) 300 pull (breathing drill) breath every 3, 5, 7 stroke each 50 6X50 (1:10) 1st 25 no breathing & 2nd 25 heavy kick!! 200 cool down mix
The first couple 50's were okay but it got tough by the 5th interval... I was only getting 3-4 sec recovery! The 500's were not too bad... I had at least 20 sec to recover between intervals. Dave did 650 in a faster time than I did my 500's. I like the breathing pulls... the 7strokes per breath were a little challenging. And... the no breathing across the pool was the kicker!!! I did okay the first 3 intervals, but the last 3, I thought I was going to pass out!!! And kicking back hard didn't help with recovery!
After my burrito, beans, and rice at Alberto's, I jumped on the trainer for a 1 hour workout using Spinerval 37.0. This workout was a series of 4X5 min hard spins and 4X2 min max spins as the core workout. I'm starting to like the trainer! I may never want to go outside again!?!? |
