Total Immersion Smart Speed
May 8th, 2010 11:40am-12:40pm at Towers Pool, Duquesne University
Total Immersion Smart Speed Clinic
There's only one guaranteed way to swim faster: Improve the way you blend Stroke Length and Stroke Rate. You can either ravel farther on each stroke, while completing them in the same time…or complete each stroke faster, while traveling the same distance…or -- the most likely -- via a series of small tradeoffs between the two. We'll teach you how to plan your speed, then achieve a faster swim by using the two key metrics of speed Strokes Per Length and Stroke Rate (with the aid of a Tempo Trainer) to greatly increase the effectiveness of every pool hour.
This workshop will be held at Towers Pool at Dequesne University, 600 Forbes Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15282. All participants must register as a USMS member in order to participate in this clinic.
