"4x" Workout

Today I came up with the "4x" theme.  I think it is one that I would like to have done.  I guess that is usually how I write my workouts anyway.  Here is the workout:

Warm Up:
100 Kick
200 Drill Stroke
300 free build by 100's

Main Set:
4x25 no breath (or 1 if you need it) @:35
rest ~:45
4x50 overkick down/regular swim back@1:00
rest ~:45
4x75 IM without the free @1:40
rest ~:45
4x100   50 moderate (~85%)/50 sprint (~95%+) @1:50
rest ~:45
4x200 Pull (strong front catch and back finish) @2:50

4x125  IM ~ Rotate the 50 stroke throughout (ex: #1--50 fly, 25 back, 25 breast, 25 free; #2--25 fly, 50 back, 25 breast, 25 free; etc.) @2:15

2,900 total yards

I get to play water polo tonight with the Olympus High team.  It will be fun to play in a more relaxed setting.  Masters pick-up is a little too aggressive for me.  Besides, a lot of the players like to show-boat and don't pass very much.  So this should be a lot of fun!
