1,000 Yards Swimming With Toys
Tuesday, December 10, 2013
I sorta did a swim workout in that I got in the pool and did 1,000 yards of something. First I had goggle issues then just issues. But at least I swam.
100 Yards stopping to fix goggles and adjust them at every 25. Then I pulled a 100 without paddles using the Headstrong Posture Trainer. (200)
4x100's on 1:30 Pulling with paddles (400/600)
1 1:18.8 100 1:18
2 1:16.8 100 1:17
3 1:16.1 100 1:16
4 1:18.8 100 1:19
100 kick then another 100 kick using my swim snorkle and the headstrong posture trainer. Trying to keep my head aligned. (200/800)
4x50's using the swim snorkel and the headstrong posture trainer. (200/1,000)
I knew I was only swimming for a short time so I used it to work on technique with the toys. I just can't get use to swimming or kicking with the swim snorkel. It's annoying but since I bought it I really should use it. Same for the posture thingy. It's pretty damn clear that I keep my head way up too high. Oh well, at least I swam.
