WOW! Thanks eclectic!
I've been doing 2 laps each session laps where I haven't been kicking at all to get my arms up to strength. I'm getting faster with just arm strokes
I like the sound of of the icecream bucket drill!! I might give that a go next time!
as for the 75s sets of 50s... There's a lane in the pool for 50s in 1minute... You have sixty seconds to do 50m. I haven't tried it yet so the 75s set sounds like a good way to start out to get up there.
Can't wait to try some of this out next time I hit the pool. ^_^
