Swiss Army Team – Optional Session 2 Week #6

Last session of the week with a focus on medley and breaststroke. This was a shorter workout with active recovery in mind, knowing that we will go lift after the swim as well this morning.

During the second part, all eggbeater was done as vertical kicking going right into the wall kicks. With this particular athlete we have also been working on his dive (foot placement in particular) and dedicated some extra time at the end to measure a couple 15 metres to track progress.
