Especially free or back. You can pull in sets of 50s on a minute or even :50. Mix it up by doing odds free evens back, etcc.

4 You can even do 100 sets like this as well. 6X100 pull on maybe 1:45 Pull a 50 get out to 20 pushups, do that for like a 500. This will be GREAT for building arm strength, you could do dips, burpees. etc Kicking: (at least 4 kick sets a week 2 hard, 2 medium) Kick sets, with fins, without fins. You can do 50s. 100s, etc anything you want! Just like we would in practice, Kick any of the strokes, practice underwaters to build your stamina for breathing. This is great to build for all your strokes. Turns: (practice turns once a week) Do the drills that we practiced in the middle of the water. That helps you work on speed when going into the wall. Watch videos on youtube to help you! Dives: do jumps and squats to help work on your speed of the block. Work on reaction time by telling eachother to GO and see how long it takes for you to react. If you can practice dives from a block, do so 3 times a week. Streamlines: EVERYDAY! Do so by off every wall. Focus on a tight streamline, shrugging your shoulders. Do underwaters specifically working on a streamline off the wall. Focus on yours kicks in your streamline. Dolphin Kicks: (4 times a week) Focus on building your kicks in a ladder. Focus on making an entire length of the pool without taking a breath. You can do these with our with out fins but MIX IT UP. The more dolphin kicks off your wall, the longer and faster you can go, the tighter your streamline, YOU WILL BEAT SOMEONE in your race!!! Dry land exercises: (3 times a week!) Be sure and run 3 times a week. Even if its just two miles, it will help you so much! Do sets of push ups. 3X20, or sets of building like 4,5,6,7,8,9,10,9,8,7,6,5,4 etc. Adjust it for YOU. ABS Everyother practice. SO important to have a tight core. This will help you build the rest of your strokes and keep you from having injuries. Planks planks and more planks situps, crunches, etc. Look online for more ideas! DIPS! You can incorporate your drylands into your pool worksouts. Be creative! Think of what we did this year! Let me know if you need more ideas! Squats to build those legs! Stretch 3 times a week VERY good. Flexibility is important for swimming. It helps your body move quicker through the water! Stretch your shoulders. Use a resistant band.

Then it takes desire, determination, discipline, and self-sacrifice. And finally, it takes a great deal of love, fairness and respect for your fellow man. Put all these together, and even if you don t win, how can you lose? -Jesse Owens Remember there is always someone out there working just as hard as you are, if not harder. The only way to get as far as they are trying to reach and go farther than them is to give everything you have. You have to give it all. All the time. At every practice, training session. It all counts. You can only become better by working harder. Nothing is given to you, you have to work for it. "Winning isn't everything, but wanting to win is." Vince Lombardi "The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a man's determination." - Tommy Lasorda "Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability."-john Wooden "Sportsmanship for me is when a guy walks off the court and you really can't tell whether he won or lost, when he carries himself with pride either way." -Jim Courier "In the end, it s extra effort that separates a winner from second place. But winning takes a lot more that, too. It starts with complete command of the fundamentals.
