In order to become a contender these days, you’ve got to have an incredible underwater dolphin kick and streamline. I’m not even close to that league but I still try to be the best that I can. Here’s some great videos from The Race Club showing how it’s done with some tips… Butterfly with Roland Schoeman and UDK with Olympic Swimmer Marcus Schlesinger
We would like to thank Barry and Sue for our swims today!
In the past, the sets below were ones that I would do regularly as pull with fins. I like pulling with fins for 2 reasons; 1) fins do not provide the buoyancy like pull buoys and require you to engage the core for rotation, 2) it’s fast and fun to kick off the walls with fins while working on the underwater streamline kick, but no kicking after the breakout.
When I was last in swimming shape, 7 months ago, I would begin with a 32-31 sec 50 then work it down to a 22-21 sec by the last on. Today was my first attempt at anything resembling a workout, managing only 5 rounds of the second set. I think I’m about 4-5 sec slower… oh well, got something to work on!
10 Rounds: Total 500 yards
50 pull with fins @ 1:00, descend effort by 1 sec/50

Thank you so much Luke for the morning swim!
