Today I got up and swam a little later than usual. I was in the pool by 6:40am. There wasn't a team practice, so I made one up on my own. I had planned to do a 600 warm up, but evolved into 2 400's. Also, I was going to do 8x100's. It makes me happy when I change workouts to increase yardage rather making it easier.
Here is what I came up with.
400 Warm Up
400 50 Kick/50 Breast
8x50 build @:50 (alternating back & free)
12x100 @1:25 (I started by holding ~1:20 and ended up around 1:16) You want :05 to :10 sec. rest on each
200 Cool Down
2,600 yards total
I should not have tried to do fast backstroke. I felt it when my shoulder/back/neck muscle pulled. It has been hurting so I am not surprised that it happened again. I need to take it easy. As soon as it happened, I started breathing every 4th stroke to the left. That seems to help.
