At an earlier practice in the week, the concept of “Restart Positions” was introduced to the athletes. The dictionary definition of “restart” is: to start again or anew.
Thus the “Restart Positions” are designed to get the athletes to start anew in terms of body position and feel for the water. This concept of restart is something that I picked up from Matt Kredich (The University Of Tennessee – Knoxville) and his staff and then modified.

We were in the middle of a 1.5 to 2 day “rest” for the 2013 Summer Western Great Lakes Open.
The main part of the workout is the Fly 50s set. The idea is to descend a set of 2x50s Fly on (1), by round; and also to descend a single 50 Fly 1-3 by round.

I’m a true believer in that swimmers have to do “work” to be successful. On the other hand, I don’t like doing boring sets that are painful to watch and not very motivating.
