What benefit to use two sets in swim down?
Mostly because I felt the mandatory part was good enough that Saturday coming off the main set. But ss explained in the short description, it was a way to give an option to the athletes that wanted more yardage that particular day.
It’s also a nice way to “reward” the athletes – I told them that the full swim down was part of my plan, however, I was happy with their effort and give them a little “bonus” at the end of the week. Obviously, this was also part of the plan – makes everyone happy.
