This evening I continued my swim practice on my hand entry again. I started with a 100m warm up swim before I went for my 30 laps with pull buoy again.
Following was the timing and certainly there was improvement as compared to last Monday, timing as follows, all the 3 sets were below 13m20sec:-
1st set - 12m 04s, (ave 1m 12.4 s per lap)(rest 30 sec)
2nd set -12m 22s, (ave 1 m 14.2s per lap)(rest 1m 30s)
3rd set - 12m 54s (ave 1m 17.4s per lap).
I also calculated strokes per lap; ave 60stroke per lap, so for 30 laps, it was 1800 stroke for both arm; and 900 stroke per arm, wow no wonder, my arm always so tired after each swim. Have to work harder because Half IM is 38laps, 2280 stroke for both arm. So if one can swim efficiently, then theoretically he should be swimming with less stroke with longer stroke length and lesser effort.
I think it is time that I focus on my kick. Planned to skip hill training and swim tomorrow.
